I have a Reolink RLC-823A camera and am trying to reset the PTZ position back to its default position if the camera has been moved. I would like it to move back to its “home” position after 5 minutes–the “gate” preset. I created an automation that should fire after PTZ preset option changed and should move the camera back to the gate preset - PTZ preset option Gate.
For some reason it does not work (I am quite new to HA but have had some success with other automations).
Here is the code:
