Notes

Unattended object detection does not operate until the status lamp turns green.

Although the indicator quickly responds to the setting being performed as you change the size of a window or a parameter, you need to click the OK button to confirm the setting. The setting will be cancelled if you do not click the OK button.

To set the unattended object detection function

Set the unattended object detection function as follows:

1 Set the PTZ position.

Select Preset position for PTZ position when you activate unattended object detection linked with a preset position. Select Current position when you activate it regardless of the camera position.

2 Select the camera position where you want to activate detection.

When you select Preset position for PTZ position, select the desired preset position from the Position drop-down list, and the camera will move to the selected preset position automatically.

3 Select Unattended object on Detection.

The setting items for unattended object detection appear.

4 Wait until the status lamp turns green.

When the status lamp is gray, the camera is in the process of acquiring a background image. Unattended object detection does not work during this period.

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.

5 Check the Window 1 check box.

The Window 1 frame appears on the monitor display.

6 Adjust the position and size of Window 1. Drag Window 1 to move it and change its size.

7 Set the active or inactive windows.

Select Active to set Window 1 as an active area, or Inactive to set it as an inactive area.

Note

If an active window and inactive window overlap, the overlapped portion will be regarded as an inactive area.

8 Set the function for Window 2 to Window 4. Repeat steps 5 to 7 for each window.

9 Select the object size for Object size.

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

10 Check whether an unattended object is detected properly.

Place an object in the window and confirm that unattended object detection works correctly. The object regarded as an unattended object is marked with a red frame.

Note

It may take a long time until an unattended object is detected, depending on the image being shot.

11 Click OK.

The unattended object detection settings for the selected position are confirmed.

Note

Be sure to click the OK button to confirm the settings. The setting will be cancelled if you do not click the OK button.

12 When Preset position is selected for PTZ position, perform settings for other preset positions. Repeat steps 2 to 11 for each preset position.
