Motion Detection Sensitivity
This is to configure the level of motion detection sensitivity. The level is composed of five levels,
from 0 to 4. Value 0 is the least sensitive setting. At this setting, the camera may "overlook" a lot
of motion. Value 4 is the most sensitive setting. At this setting, the camera will likely cause a lot
of false alarms because the tiniest movement – even the video compression – which can create
compression artifacts can trigger an alert. Values 1 - 3 are more suited for real-life applications.
Experiment with the different settings to find the right level of sensitivity for your application.
Motion Detection Area
This is to configure the motion detection area in the images. If you select "Motion Detection
Area" type in the combo box and click "Display motion area," then you can see your setting of
"Motion Detection Area" graphically as shown in the figures below.
CAUTION: It is not recommended that the motion detection function be used for security
purposes. To perform security surveillance for the protection of high-value goods, it is suggested
that infrared sensors or other insurance-approved sensors be used (and connected to the
camera to make use of the event output options).
It should also be mentioned that the motion detection delivers better results at lower image
resolutions.
