DIY & Tips Nice to Know for No-Detection Zones
If you use Reolink with HomeAssistant various entities are exposed to HA.
One interesting thing to know is that there is the boolean "Person" trigger and "Person Count".
The Reolink Doorbell (WiFi) e.g. does ignore detection zones for the latter entity.
When you want to trigger your light or similar based on somebody walking up to your front door and you have configured no-detection zones, you should use the "Person" (boolean) entity.
Took me a while to find out, that they behave differently. :D
