    Can an Event be used to PAN/TILT a Camera

    I have a few cameras. I have no need for inside cameras to be on while I am home. It's easy to connect them to a z-wave outlet and let them turn on when I leave. The problem is my wife doesn't really like them staring at her whether they are on OR off. I can't say I blame her.

    I typically spin them around to face the wall when not in use manually. What I want to do is have my PHLocation plugin be the trigger to spin them when I leave and when I return.

    Is there any way to do this with the base Homeseer app (preferred) or with one of the plug in's?

    THANKS!

    Tom

      My Camera

      It is an Amcrest ProHD 1080P WiFi/Wireless IP Security Camera IP2M-841. I record to their cloud service online.

      Thanks for taking the time to respond!

        Check out Ultranetcam3. It allows you to preset up to 10 positions and then in an event go to a specified preset based on other things like leaving or entering the house.

        Here is a part of an event I have.
