About Moon Detecon
In general, the moon detecon can be used with almost all stac and wired cameras. However, PTZ systems are
incompable with moon detecon, avoid allowing moon detecon on a channel which has a PTZ system connected
to it.
False Triggers
It is very important to set the moon detecon on a suitable sensivity level. If you set the moon detecon at a high
sensivity levels (4 or lower) then the frequency of false alarm events increases. Vice versa if the sensivity level is too
low (20 or higher), you might increase the risk that an important moon event will not trigger the moon detecon to
record. Therefore during the DVR system conguraon, it is advised to check the moon detecon in normal and low
light condions (during the day and night).
Also, false triggers may be caused by severe weather condions, for example lightening and heavy rain. To minimize
the false triggers, do the following:
• Adjust the Image Sengs to congure the brightness and contrast, see “Color Sengs” on page 35.
• Make limitaons to the moon sensive areas, selecng only the area where the target would most probably be.
Hence, turn o the moon sensivity to any area a target cannot move.
In Trigger, click Sengs to congure
the acons to be taken when moon
is detected.
Record: Check the box to select the
channel(s) to record when the moon
is detected.
Snapshot: Check the box to select the
channel(s) to take a snapshot when
the moon is detected.
Send E-MAIL: Check to enable e-mail
alarm nocaon. If the funcon is
enabled, the system will send the
alarm messages / snapshots (snapshot
opon must be enabled rst) to the
specied e-mail address.
