param.cgi?cmd=getmdtime

Enable timed Alarm Areas

Enable different detection areas for day and night:

  • ta_enable: Enable alarm area shedule [0,1]
  • ta_day: Enables day areas at time X [0 - 86399] seconds
  • ta_night: Enables night areas at time X [0 - 86399] seconds
  • ta_areas: List of areas that will be active during the day interval

The sum of those two times has to be 24h [86400s] spanning the entire day.
