3.Create a motion detection area (Area tab)

Create an area in the viewer within which motion detection is to be performed (motion detection area). You can create a maximum of 4 motion detection areas, and reshape and move each area frame by dragging the mouse. Change the shape by dragging the black boxes on the 4 corners and sides of the frame, and move the frame by dragging the

inside of it with the mouse. Also, you can set a separate level of motion detection in each area. See step 4 (→ P.4-47) for how to set up the level of motion detection.

4.Setting the level of motion detection for the motion detection area (Area tab)

These settings determine how great the variation must be (sensitivity), how large the changed area must be as a proportion of the whole detection area (area ratio), and how long the variation must continue (duration) before it is recognized as motion and the specified action is performed.

You can also set the level of motion detection for the device by checking in Video Mode the image recorded with Live Mode (→ P.4-51).

wSetting Area

If you have created two or more motion detection areas, you can set separate levels of motion detection in each area frame. In Setting Area, select a setting number.

eSensitivity

Select the sensitivity of the motion detection in a range of 1-256. Either enter the setting or set sensitivity by dragging the slide bar. The larger the numeric value, the higher the degree of sensitivity will be.

r“Auto” button

The “Auto” button sets sensitivity automatically. For several seconds after clicking the “Auto” button, the VB-C50Fi assumes that there is no motion in the image in the motion detection area and, based on this information, sets the camera at optimum sensitivity. Set when there is no motion.

tDetection indicator

Displays the area ratio of motion detected by the device in real time in the form of a graph (→ P.4-50).
