Motion Settings

Note :

Before configuring the motion detection settings, it is recommended that you complete the settings related to image resolution, compression, and motion detection exclusion areas. Otherwise, you may need to adjust the sensitivity level in the motion detection settings again when you change the picture quality and set the exclusion areas at a later date.

Defining Motion Detection Exclusion Regions

You can specify specific areas to be excluded from motion detection to prevent the detection of irrelevant motion, such as trees swaying in the wind or cars that drive past continuously in the background.

1 Select a camera from the [Device Manager] on the [Camera Recording Administator] screen, and click [Exclude Regions...] in [Settings...]

If the [Show Grid] check box is selected, the preview screen appears, which is divided into small areas by a grid. Areas highlighted in blue indicate the exclusion areas.

Description

 

 

A Set All

Sets all sections in the grid on the preview

 

image as exclusion areas.

 

 

B Clear All

Clears all sections in the grid on the preview

 

image that are specified as exclusion areas.

 

 

C Auto

Click this button to automatically detect areas

 

with insignificant image changes (noises)

 

that are not to be detected as AmotionB, and

 

mark such areas to exclude them from

 

motion detection. As a large number of

 

images need to be analyzed during the

 

marking operation, it may take a while to

 

complete after you have clicked the [Auto]

 

button.

 

 

D Show Grid

Select this check box to enable the display of

 

grids on the preview image. The default

 

setting is [Show Grid].

 

 

Note :

Note that when motion detection is set at short intervals, the number of alarms may increase and a longer search time may be required during playback.

When a camera is connected, flickers such as those of a fluorescent light may cause a false motion detection. In this case, set the camera to flickerless.

Noises in the camera image may also trigger a false detection. Set the camera to prevent false detection even when the ACG function is enabled, such as during nighttime.
