Save images within … - If Images with motion has been selected as the
recording condition, it is then also possible save images from immediately
before and after the alarm, i.e. when the detected motion exceeds the
given limit. These images are constantly buffered for the selected period
(e.g. 5 seconds before and after) and are thus always ready to be stored
when the alarm occurs.
Camera Monitor Setup
Show Motion - Select this if you want the detected motion to appear
highlighted in the image. If selected, the areas of the image with motion
will be shown in the selected color. The color is selected by clicking the
Motion Color button.
Show Regions - Select this to highlight the areas where motion detection
has been excluded (disabled). If selected, these areas will be shown in the
selected color, which in turn is selected by clicking the Region Color
button in the Exclude Regions Settings.
Update on motion only - Select this option if you only want the camera to
update on your screen when motion is detected. Enabling this option
greatly reduces the workload of the PC.
Note: Screen updating can be disabled completely in the General Settings.
Database Settings
This is where you specify the number of images to store in the image
database, as well as its location on the local hard disk. A separate database
is used for each camera.
Max. images in database - Select this opption to limit the image database for
the camera to a maximum number of images. When the maximum number
of images has been recorded, the oldest image is automatically deleted
each time a new image is saved. The maximum number of images that can
be saved for each camera is 600.000. A few examples of the number of
images that can be saved for each camera database are shown below:
Frame rate = 6 fps, images saved = “All images” --> almost 28 hours
Frame rate = 30 fps, images saved = “Images with motion” and motion
occurs less than 23% of the time --> 24 hours
Frame rate = 1 fps, images saved = ”All images” --> almost one week
