DETEXI NVR 72 - 169
• Using VMD helps in prioritizing recordings, and making searching for events easier. Motion
detected data can be included in a video stream to simplify activity searches in the recorded
material (scheduled with motion detection type of recording).
• Once motion is detected, the NVR can trigger an external device (such as a door to open or
close, a light to turn on or off), initiate recordings from selected cameras, and send e-mail alerts.
Alerts also can be triggered if motion stops.
1. Adjust Motion Settings
Motion can be detected in any area of an image. In addition, users may be able to set different motion
detection sensitivities. When a recording schedule has motion detection enabled, the Motion Settings
become available to the user. These settings are not required, but can be used to optimize motion
detection for each individual camera and its environment.
• Motion settings apply only to the currently selected recording schedule, allowing
different motion settings to be applied to different times of day and levels of light.
• A set of motion settings can be defined as the default, which will automatically apply to all new
schedules created for that camera.
