Alarm: Detection
Each camera input on your DVR will be displayed as CH1, CH2, etc.
Setup: Click the button to change the default motion detection area. The en-
tire view of the camera is enabled for motion detection, however you can se-
lect certain areas if you wish (see page 21 - Motion Detection Setup).
Mode: By default, your DVR will record motion only if one or more objects
have been detected by the camera and the camera’s built-in PIR sensor. This
provides more accurate motion detection by eliminating false triggers due to
wind, leaves falling and rain (see page 23 - Thermal-Sensing Camera Tips).
If you’re monitoring an area that doesn’t require objects to be detected by the
camera’s built-in PIR sensor, such as a busy walkway or a building entrance,
change this to “Motion”.
Sensitivity: This option allows you to change the sensitivity level. The higher
the number, the more sensitive your DVR will be when detecting motion. For
most instances, the default selection will be suitable, however it’s recom-
mended to conduct a test to see if the sensitivity level is correct for the cam-
era’s location (see page 22 - Motion Detection Tips).
Actions: Click the button to change options for alarm notifications, alerts and
more (see page 20 - Alarm: Detection - Actions).
(continued on next page)
When motion has been detected by one or
more cameras, your DVR will alert you to a
potential threat at your home. It does this by
sending you an email alert with an attached
image from the camera to use as a reference
(if this option is enabled) and/or sending push
notifications via the Swann Security app.
