AXIS 231D+/232D+ - Event Configuration 33

Motion detection

In the Motion Detection menu, you can configure the video source(s) for motion detection. The motion detection feature is used to generate an alarm whenever movement occurs (or stops) in the image. The AXIS 231D+/232D+ can use a maximum of 10 windows (Include/Exclude).

•Include windows target specific areas within the image

•Exclude windows are areas to be ignored within the Include window

Once configured, the motion detection windows appear in a list when motion detection is selected to trigger an event. See How to set up a triggered event above.

Note: Using the motion detection feature may decrease overall performance in the video server.
