Exclude Area
An exclude area is an area in which moving objects will be ignored. Use exclude areas if there are areas inside the include area that trigger a lot of unwanted detected objects. Up to 10 exclude areas can be used.

To add and modify exclude areas, Internet Explorer and AXIS Media Control (AMC) must be used.
To add an exclude area, click Add. The default exclude area is a rectangle placed in the center of the image. Use the mouse to move, reshape and resize the area so that it covers the desired part of the image. The default square can be changed to a polygon with up to 20 points (corners).

Visual Confirmation
Visual confirmation is used to validate that the settings are correct, that is, that all objects that should be detected are detected.
Note
To use visual confirmation, Internet Explorer and AXIS Media Control (AMC) must be used.
When visual confirmation is enabled, all moving objects found by the application will be encircled and followed by polygons. A red polygon indicates that the object is found and is detected as a moving object. A green polygon indicates that the object is found but is ignored because it is not in the include area or because of one of the ignore filters.
To enable visual confirmation:
1.Select the Enable visual confirmation option.
2.Click Save.
Note
•Visual confirmation is disabled after 15 minutes.
•After modifying a setting, click Save to apply the change. The video stream will be restarted and it may take a few seconds before the change is applied.
•Enabling visual confirmation may introduce video latency.
Ignore Filters
If AXIS Video Motion Detection 3 detects too many unwanted objects, start by modifying the include and exclude areas. If still too many objects are detected, use one or more of the ignore filters.
