Included windows target
specific areas within the
whole video image
Excluded windows define
areas within an Include
window that should be
ignored (areas outside
Include windows are auto
-
matically ignored)
Once configured, the motion
detection windows will appear in the
list of available triggers, for
triggering events. See
