3. Set the Object Size, History, and Sensitivity profile sliders for the window (only applies to Include
windows). A full description of each profile slider is provided below.
4. To test the motion detection window, select it and then create some physical disturbance within
the window area. Any detected motion is then indicated by colored peaks in the Activity Indicator.
An alarm is only generated if the motion exceeds the tolerance defined by the black delimiter line
and the peak turns red.
5. For the Java applet: Click the Save button to save the new window.
Motion Detection Parameters
The parameters available for motion detection are described briefly here. Please see the online help for
complete descriptions.
Examples:
Avoid triggering on small objects in the image by selecting a high size level.
To trigger motion detection as long as there is activity in the area, select a high history level.
To only detect flashing light, low sensitivity can be selected. In other cases, a high sensitivity level is recommended.
Port Status
Under Event Configuration > Port Status there is a list that shows the status for the connected inputs and
outputs of the AXIS 214 PTZ for the benefit of the Operator who cannot access the System Options section.
Example:
If the Normal state for a push button connected to an input is set to Inactive - as long as the button is not pushed, the state
will be inactive. If the button is pushed, the state of the input changes to active.
If there are parts of the Include window that you wish to exclude, create an
Exclude Window. An Exclude window is named, sized and moved in the
same way as an Include window, but no other configuration is necessary.
