At dawn, the light becomes bright from dark, generating a lot of noise when the Self-
Guard is in such circumstance. And the Self-Guard may recognize those noises as a
motion. In this case, you can set this level to “H” or “HH” to cut the noise.
However, if you set the level to “H” or “HH”, then the motion detection algorithm of the
Self-Guard may recognize the actual small motions as noise, and does not record
those small motions. So, set the level to “M” except for the special cases.
4-2-1-7. MOTION AREA (Motion Detection)
Out of the whole recording area from the camera’s view, this function is used when you
want to detect motions for the specific areas that you have selected only. The whole
recording area is divided into 16 (128x128), 20 (160x128), and 25 (240x240, 320x240,
480x480, and 640x480) blocks depending on the resolution. You can move the cursor
among from the blocks by using the direction buttons, and press [ENT] to select (red
colored O) or cancel (blue colored -) specific blocks. After selecting all the blocks for
the motion detection, press [ESC] to escape from the “EDIT” mode and to go to the
four options below. Select “SAVE” and press [ENT] to save the selected blocks.
ALL: Select all blocks
CLEAR: Cancel all blocks
EDIT: Select/Cancel blocks
SAVE: Save and Exit
Caution: If you select “CLEAR” and save it by pressing [ENT], then the Self-Guard
does not record any images even if there is a motion, because no area is selected for
the Self-Guard to detect the motions. Accordingly, be sure to select at least one block
in order for the Self-Guard to detect and record the images.
