Here is a video compilation of what happens when it works. People can use the exit door and leave from the left without a problem. But when people approach the camera from the right, it activates an irrigation valve.

Thanks to your pointers I got #!/usr/bin/env perl use strict; use warnings; use ZoneMinder; use Switch; use Data::Dumper; use Time::HiRes qw(usleep); my @monitors; my $res; my $sth; my $row; my $note; my $dbh = zmDbConnect(); my $sql = "SELECT * FROM Monitors WHERE Monitors.Id = '12'"; $sth ...

Again, you are awesome to respond but: The database query mode only works after the zone is no longer in alarm and the event is written (unless it has changed recently) The method I have been using shows the zone name as soon as the alarm occurs. I actually use zmGetMonitorState($monitor) and ...

my $alarmcause = zmGetMonitorState($monitor);

Does not return the name of the zone in alarm which I need and is now missing in 1.36.

but thank you for your response.

I am not competent at debugging perl but have done my best to figure out the alarm cause is no longer being written to the shared memory file. By stepping through the process, I believe the alarm cause should be at location 376 of my memory map for a length of 256 bytes. line 152 of Mapped.pm: my ...

on my v1.34.26. system, I get this. It includes the zone name (in "Motion Ramp" or "Motion Shed") Cause: Motion Shed x: -1 y:-1 $VAR1 = 'Motion Shed'; $VAR1 = 'Motion Shed'; $VAR1 = 'Motion Shed'; $VAR1 = 'Motion Shed'; $VAR1 = 'Motion Shed'; $VAR1 = 'Motion Shed'; $VAR1 = 'Motion Ramp'; $VAR1 ...

Thanks, when you have a chance. My code: #!/usr/bin/env perl use strict; use warnings; use ZoneMinder; use Switch; use Data::Dumper; use Time::HiRes qw(usleep); my @monitors; my $dbh = zmDbConnect(); my $sql = "SELECT * FROM Monitors WHERE Monitors.Id = '1'"; my $sth = $dbh->prepare_cached( $sql ...

Hello, I recently upgraded from 1.34 to 1.36 In 1.34 I was using a perl script with my $alarmcause = zmMemRead($monitor, 'shared_data:alarm_cause'); $alarmcause used to include the name of the zone that went into alarm ex: "Motion Zone1" now it just includes "Motion" without a zone name. Is there ...

I haven't found anything like it in the works. This is just a mod on my server.

I am working on this as a project. The alarm events are checked and the false events are unchecked. The stats of the alarm frames are processed and graphed. I know the process works but am not sure the data as I have processed it is of any use. In this particular case there is a definite difference ...

This is the resulting graph

I have 2 reasonably large systems with some false alarming problems. I am working on a way to graph the stats easily to compare real alarms to false alarms. I have made a small mod to events.php which allows selected and non selected events to be sent to a graphing routine. I am getting output ...

Thanks, I will just stick with the package 1.29 version until 1.30 works.

At least I have figured out how to install the libraries. It is a new day and I have a fresh brain. I have the same symptoms as https://forums.zoneminder.com/viewtopic.php?t=18723 and there for wanted to explore the patch (above) I don't know if I am chasing a wild goose but enjoy fooling around ...
