What is this icon I am seeing?

I've owned and generally enjoyed my various Reolink cams and RLN8-410 NVR for six or eight months now, but have struggled mightily to get the myriad of motion settings right. Can someone tell me what this icon/symbol means?



The above from my NVR and I can see it also in the iOS app though it appears upper-right outside the frame. It comes and goes, and there is no recording that is kept following its appearance.

I appears possibly to be signalling detected motion, but then the motion is filtered-out by one or more of the Detection settings? Am I right?

Is there any place on the reolink.com site that explains all the settings, and also the on-screen icons and such???

@myreolink_533265780207845 It indicates that motion has been detected. Check out this link for a description of all the icons appearing on Reolink https://support.reolink.com/hc/en-us/articles/17282649291545-Intruduction-to-the-Buttons-and-Icons-on-Live-View-Page-of-Reolink-NVR-New-UI-/

@joseph_1979 I searched and surfed and surfed some more and never found that!

So, I am right that if the icon shows "morion detected" yet no recording is made, that means "smartness" has been applied?

I will try to look at all your FAQs thanks.

@myreolink_533265780207845 Exactly. But if you set any motion then it will be recorded and you will be annoyed if push notification is enabled on any motion too.
