Zones...

[keyboardgnome]

Hi all,

been a happy customer of ZM for a while now. Now I need to decrease the amount of alerts that I have coming in. My question is regarding zones. Currently, I have two zones; the first is the all inclusive default which I have disabled. The second is just a small area that covers 23% of the screen. I know things have happened within this zone, but nothing has been logged. What I need to know is some basic definations.

What is the Pixel Threshold
Filter
Alarmed Area
Filtered Area
Blob Area
Blobs

What do all those things mean? I'd like to know to better understand the settings to be able to records the events that are occuring.

Thx

The descriptions of these should be in the README. There are some basic presets in the Zone settings view. They may help give an idea of what the different values mean.
