To set the unattended object detection function

Set the unattended object detection function as follows:

1 Select Unattended object on Detection.

The setting items for unattended object detection appear.

The status lamp turns green when the background image has been acquired.

Note

When you acquire a background image, use an image with as little motion as possible. If you use an image with a lot of motion, it will take a long time to complete acquiring of the background image.

Repeat steps 3 to 5 for each window.

Select a larger size if a small noise may be detected as an object by mistake.
