Configuration > Advanced >Motion Detection (continued)

Enable motion detection - Check this option to turn on the motion detection.

Window Name -

The text entered here will show at the top of the

 

window.

Sensitivity -

Sets the measurable difference between two

 

sequential images that would indicate motion.

Percentage -

Note:

Sets the amount of motion in the window being monitored that is required to initiate a motion detected alert.

Setting a higher sensitivity and a lower percentage will make any motion more easily detected.

New -

Click to add a new window. A maximum of three

 

windows can be opened simultaneously. Use your

 

mouse to drag the window frame to resize or the

 

title bar to move. Clicking on the ‘x’ at the upper

 

right corner of the window wil close the window.

Save -

Saves the related settings of that window.

To display motion detection, a graphic bar will rise or fall depending on the image variation.

A green bar means the image variation is under the monitoring level, and no motion detection alert is triggered. A red bar means the image variation is over the monitoring level and a motion detected alert is triggered. When the bar goes red, the window that the motion is detected in will also be outlined in red (note: remember that you can have up to 3 windows selected for motion detection). You can return to the DCS-5300Home Page and the monitored window will not be visible, but the red frame will show on the home page when motion is detected.
