Video and image problems, general

 

 

Image unsatisfactory

Check the video stream and camera settings under Setup > Video > Video Stream and Setup >

 

Video > Camera Settings.

Motion Detection triggers unexpectedly

 

 

Changes in luminance

Motion detection is based on changes in luminance in the image. This means that if there are

 

sudden changes in the lighting, motion detection may trigger mistakenly. Lower the sensitivity

 

setting to avoid problems with luminance.

Storage and disk management problems

 

 

Storage disruption

A storage disruption alarm is sent if a storage device is unavailable, removed, full, locked or if other

 

read or write problems occur. To identify the source of the problem, check the System Log under

 

System Options > Support > Logs & Reports. Depending on the problem, it might be necessary to

 

re-mount the storage device.

 

For information on how to set up a storage disruption alarm, see Events, on page 30.
