Trigger interval
Trigger interval is the time period from the beginning of the triggered event during which all
motion activities are ignored by the camera. This is designed to avoid needless repetitive
reporting of the same intrusion. Trigger interval 20 seconds would mean that when the even
happens, camera will take certain one-time actions and ignore the continuing activity in the
motion detection region for 20 seconds. When 20 seconds are over, the camera will produce a
new alarm if there are still action in the motion detection region, and take actions again.
There is one more item on the Motion Detection
configuration page which was not explained above –
the Profile of Motion Detection. Think of them as
Profile 1 (Runtime MD Profile) and Profile 2 (Event
MD Profile). It means that you can configure two independent groups of Motion Detection regions
with at most 10 regions in each group. Normally, the Profile 1 (Runtime MD Profile) is used as an
active profile of the camera. However, in some cases it is possible to let the camera switch to
Profile 2 by using the Event Handler system of the camera.
For example, you might want to have different motion detection parameters for day and night time.
Then the two profiles become really handy. In such case, remember to configure the motion
detection parameters for both profiles before moving on to configure the event response system.
After changing any of the items above, press Apply to save the changes. The Reset button
undoes the changes that had just been made but not Applied yet.
NOTE: For PTZ / Speed dome cameras, it is recommended to turn off motion detection when
scan and tour modes are enabled to avoid false motion alarm.
