9. i-VMD setting [i-VMD]

The intelligent motion detection function allows the camera to detect motion and appearance/disappearance of an object or scene change with the camera. Detection of motion and appearance/disappearance of an object or scene change with the camera can be announced by issuing an alarm signal or displaying a frame on the screen.

Important:

•The following circumstances may result in detection failure or false detection: Adjusting the detection area and sensitivity may cause detection failure.

•Not enough difference in brightness between the background and the moving photographic subject, or significant changes in brightness

•Dirt or water drops on the lens

•Insufficient brightness, for example, when shooting at night

•The subject is moving straight at the camera

•The subject is moving too fast or too slow

•The subject is too small or too large

•There are too many moving objects

•Light reflected through a window or from a road surface

•The camera is shaking

•Entry of outside light, such as sunlight or the headlights of a car

•Flickering fluorescent light

•Scene change detection may fail in the following cases:

•The lens is partially covered or covered with a transparent item

•The photographic subjects before and after changing the camera direction are similar

•False detection may occur for approx. 1 minute after turning on the power, after completing settings in the SETUP menu, or after changing the camera view angle.
