Motion detection alarm

A motion detection alarm is an alarm that is triggered when a camera detects motion. The DVR 31 can be configured to display an on-screen alert icon and sound an alarm tone. The DVR 31 lets you define the area on screen where the motion is detected, the level of sensitivity to motion, the schedule, and the target size.

To define a motion detection alarm:

1.Click Cameras on the main menu to display the Cameras screen.

2.In the Current Camera box, select the camera for which you want to define a motion detection alarm .

3.Click the Motion Detection Setup button to display the Motion Detection screen.

4.In the Motion Detection box, select the schedule of when you want motion detection to be enabled.

5.Click the Detection Area Setup button to define the motion detection area.

The system displays a grid covering the entire live view screen of the currently selected camera as shown in the figure below. By default, motion detection is set for the entire screen. Each green square represents a motion detection area. Click on an area (or press Enter) to stop motion detection in that area. When only the desired detection areas remain, right-click, and then click Confirm to save your settings. Press Esc to return to the main menu.

Alternatively, you can select the entire area by right-clicking, and then clicking Select All. A grid covers the entire display screen. Click Deselect All to clear the screen from motion detection.

6. Select a sensitivity level in the Sensitivity box.
