If you select [Simple], [Sensitivity] and [Area Ratio] can only be set using the sliders. [Duration] is fixed at 0.2
seconds.
If you select [Advanced], the [Sensitivity], [Area Ratio] and [Duration] settings become available so that values
can be set.
(5) [Sensitivity]
Specify the motion detection sensitivity within the range of 1 to 256. Increase the number to increase the
sensitivity.

The size marker inside the Detection Indicator changes position depending on the value of this setting.
(7) [Duration]

5.0 seconds.

to make it larger or smaller.
(9) [Detection Indicator]
The size marker changes position depending on the value of the [Area Ratio] setting. Adjust the motion
detection settings while viewing the preview video and the Detection Indicator.

The other settings are the same as those for continuous recording (P. 78).
Color of the
Colored Bar
Meaning
Green
The detected motion does not reach the values specified in [Sensitivity] and [Area Ratio].
In this case, the colored bar remains to the left of the size marker.
Red
The detected motion exceeds the values specified in [Sensitivity] and [Area Ratio]. In this
case, the colored bar remains to the right of the size marker.
Important
If the recording period for a schedule ends while motion detection recording is in progress, recording will stop.
The detection indicator is not affected by the [Duration] setting. Be sure to take the detection time into account when adjusting
the motion detection settings.
To perform motion detection on the Storage Server, you must specify [JPEG] for the [Video Format]. Also, if you simultaneously
use more than one recording mode, all the [Video Format] settings must be [JPEG]. An error message is displayed if you try to
use a format other than [JPEG] and motion detection on the Storage Server at the same time.
Make the [Priority] setting on the [Recording Settings] tab lower than the priority of any of the other recording settings.
