Canon VB150 appendix Setting the area ratio, Setting the duration, Setting the Action Performed

Motion Detection Setting Tool

■Setting the area ratio

To Make Settings...

Dragging the Area Ratio scroll bar sets the proportion of the preset motion detection area (dotted frame) that is occupied by the area in which changes in the image were actually detected (red rectangle). Values between 0% and 100% can be set.

The specified area ratio is displayed in the Detection Indicator.

■Setting the duration

To Make Settings...

If the size of the area in which actual variation occurs in the image exceeds the specified area ratio, dragging the button on the Duration scroll bar sets the time limit for which such motion must continue before it is regarded as "detected motion". The available settings are 0 to 5 seconds.

Also, if motion is detected but the area becomes less than the area ratio, the “motion detected” status is maintained for the duration set here.

Setting the Action Performed

This step specifies the actions taken when motion is detected.

To Make Settings...

2	The “Actions when motion is detected” dialog box

	Devices” on P.49 for information on the correlation
	between the ON and OFF settings for each
	parameter.
