To prevent motion alerts from overflowing your elements app and to extend battery life, Gigaset motion waits 20 seconds until it reports the next motion. 

If there is continuous movement in the field of view of Gigaset motion, it will not report again until no movement has been detected for 20 seconds.


If your system is set to [Home] mode and [Privacy] is switched on, no movements are displayed by the motion either.


How can I switch "Privacy" on and off?

  • Open the Gigaset elements app
  • Click on the horizontal stripes at the top left 
  • Click on [Configuration]
  • Under [Alarm Mode], click on [Home].
  • Now you can switch the privacy on and off by clicking on the button.
