Set Sensitivity Area

Set Sensitivity Area  If you want to specify the sensitivity area settings for motion detection, click this button to display the Set Sensitivity Area window. The Set Sensitivity Area window lets you specify the area of the video screen that is used to detect motion. This is either the full screen, or up to three user-defined custom areas within the full screen.

Set Sensitivity Area

NOTE: In order to set the Camera’s sensitivity area, you will need to access the Web-based utility using Internet Explorer 6 or higher.

The following fields appear on the left side of the Set Sensitivity Area window for each sensitivity area. Specify the settings as needed, then click Apply.

•• Full Screen or Window 2-4  This is the name of the sensitivity area, either Full screen by default, or if Setting Custom Area is selected, Window 2, Window 3, or Window 4 (custom areas). To change a custom area name to a more appropriate name, such as Front Door, enter the new name in this field.

•• Setting Custom Area  To specify custom area(s) within the full screen, check this box, then configure up to three custom sensitivity areas. By default only one area, Window 2, is selected. To create an additional area, check the box next to its name. You can move or resize each area as needed. Custom areas may also overlap.

•• Threshold  Slide this to the left to reduce the area’s sensitivity, or to the right to increase sensitivity.

New Motion Trigger Schedule

This section allows you to create a schedule that determines when motion detection will be active. To do this, you define one or more “trigger” events, or periods during which motion detection will be in effect. For each trigger event, fill in the following fields.

Trigger Motion Detection  Specify how often this trigger event occurs: Every day, Weekdays (Mon - Fri), or on specific days of the week (Sunday to Saturday).

Start Time and End Time  Specify the start and end times for the event.

Add  Click Add to add the new event to the schedule. Clear  Click Clear to clear the schedule of all events.

Delete  To delete an event from the Schedule List, select the event, then click Delete.

Schedule List  This displays all of the scheduled trigger events that you have defined and saved. It is empty by default.

To save your changes, click Apply. To cancel any unsaved changes, click Cancel. To get additional information about the screen’s features, click Help.
