Calibrating Motion Detection
The motion detection system can control (a) when images are saved to
disk, and (b) when alarms are generated, and is therefore a vital element of
the system.
Motion detection requires careful calibration or it will not function
properly. Follow the instructions below.
It is recommended that any regions that should be excluded are from
motion detection are configured before calibrating motion detection. See
page 24.
Figure 5 - The Motion detection window.
Motion Level Indicator - Indicates the current level of detected motion in the
image. The indicator is green when the level is below the threshold and red
when the threshold is exceeded.
Alarm Threshold Indicator - Indicates the selected motion alarm threshold.
An alarm will be generated when the motion level goes beyond the
threshold.
