This article describes how to adjust the Retrigger Time for your Blink camera. 

Retrigger Time is the amount of time between the end of a motion capture and the beginning of a new motion event. During the retrigger time, your camera doesn’t record motion events. 

By default, the system will capture a five-second clip and wait for the retrigger time of 30 seconds. If motion continues, the camera will capture another five-second clip. Retrigger Time can be adjusted under Device Settings.

Note: Each camera in your system has an individual Retrigger Time setting.

Adjusting the Retrigger Time

1. From the Home screen, tap the More  button and then select Device Settings.
2. From the Device Settings screen, tap Motion Settings.
3. In Motion Settings, you can adjust the Retrigger Time value from 10 to 60 seconds. To increase the retrigger time, move the slider to the right, and to decrease the delay, move the slider to the left.
   • The longer the retrigger time is set, your camera allows more time between notifying you of the next motion event it detects. This is useful if your camera views an area where motion occurs often or if you’re getting false triggers.
4. When you have this setting where you want it, tap Save.

Test your settings

After you have set your desired Retrigger Time, arm your Blink system and then walk through the field of view of your adjusted camera. You’ll receive a motion alert on your screen. Continue to walk through the field of view of this camera for the length of your delay. You’ll receive a second motion alert when your system has captured another clip. If the retrigger time was too short or too long between captured clips, return to camera settings to fine-tune.
