Note

•By setting a mask for shooting areas (the screen) that have objects that can cause false detections such as swaying trees, roads (where cars pass through), or level surfaces (areas that cause light reflection), false detections can be reduced.

•Mask areas cannot be configured separately for each preset position. The specified area is active for all the preset positions.

IMPORTANT
