ANALYTIC CONFIGURATION
To configure an analytic behavior using a standard Web browser, you must create a profile, select the behavior for the profile, and then create the
zones to be monitored by the behavior.
NOTES:
• This section explains how to configure and enable Pelco analytics using a Web browser.
• Analytic alerts can be seen in the event stream, but alarms are only transmitted through Pelco’s API.
PROFILES
A profile defines the scene attributes of a behavior including scene type, background movement, and noise sensitivity. When configured properly,
a profile accurately detects behavior violations and decreases the number of triggered false alarms.
Profile Settings
For each behavior, you can create several custom profiles that contain different settings. These settings include:
Name: Assigns a descriptive name to the profile to make it easier to recognize and locate. Consider naming profiles based on their function.
Scene type: Sets the scene type of the profile. Available settings include Indoor and Outdoor.
Background: Defines the background movement of the scene. Available settings include Still or Noisy. If the background is stable, with few
moving objects, set the background to Still. If the background is busy, with many moving objects, select Noisy.
Fine tuning: Defines the zone violation sensitivity. Available settings include Conservative, Normal, or Aggressive. Conservative is the least
sensitive setting and reduces the amount of triggered false alarms, but it could miss some zone violations. Aggressive is the most sensitive
setting and detects all suspect objects, but it could trigger more false alarms. Normal falls between conservative and aggressive sensitivity and
provides moderate results.
Sensitivity: Defines the minimum motion an object can move before a behavior is activated. Settings range from 1 (low) to 10 (high). The
selected setting identifies any movement lower than the defined setting as noise, and ignores it. The higher the setting, the greater the chance
for a false alarm. A lower setting reduces the chance for a false alarm, but it could result in missed violations.
Creating a New Profile
1. Place your mouse pointer over the Events tab.
2. Select Analytic Configuration from the drop-down menu.
3. Click the New button located in the Select Profile section.
4. Type a descriptive name for the profile in the Name box located in the Profile Settings section.
NOTE: Consider naming profiles based on their function. A more descriptive name makes it easier to recognize and locate a profile.
5. Select the Camera preset, Scene type, Background, Fine tuning, and Sensitivity settings from the drop-down menus located in the Profile
Settings section.
6. Click the Calibrate Scene button to calibrate the scene.
NOTE: Set the perspective settings to reflect the camera’s angle. This information makes the object sizes you set on the next tab more
meaningful and helps reduce the number of false alarms.
7. Select the behavior for the profile from the Select Behaviors section.
8. Configure the settings for the behavior.
9. Click the Save button to save the profile. The new profile name appears in the Select Profile section. Or click the Reset button to clear all of
the information you entered without saving it.
