AXIS M1034-W Network Camera
Detectors
Low level (0%)
Even very small objects trigger
motion detection.
An object that appears in
the window triggers motion
detection only for a very short
time before it is considered as
non-moving.
Only very bright objects on
a dark background trigger
motion detection.
Recommended values
5–15% 60–90% 75–95%
Default values
15% 90% 90%
Note
• To trigger on small o bjects or movements, use several small motion detection windows rather than one large window
and select a low object size.
• To avoid triggering on small obj ects, select a high object size.
• If no o bjects should app ear in the Include Window, select a high history level. This will cause motion detectio n to
trigger a s long as the object is present in the w indow.
• To only detect flashing l ight, select a low sensitivity. In other cases high sensitivity is recommended.
Audio Detection
The Axis product can be configured to generate an alarm when audio rises above or falls below the threshold value. The threshold
value can be set in the range 0–100 where 0 is the most sensitive and 100 the least sensitive.
1. Go to Detectors > Audio Detection.
2. Set the audio alarm level and click Save.
3. Go to Events > Action Rules and set up an action rule, see
Setting Up an Action Rule, on pa
ge 33
.
Detected audio is indicated by colored peaks in the Activity indi cator. An e v e
nt is triggered when detected audio rises above or falls
below the threshold value, which is represented by the bar.
PIR Sensor
The PIR (Passive Infra red) sensor detects motion by m easuring changes in infrared light. The sensor can for example be used in
low-light environments wh ere video motion de tection (see
page 29
) is not reliable.
To adjust the sensitivity of the PIR sens or, an action rule that activates the built-in light w h en the PIR sensor detects motion is useful:
1. Go to Events > Action Rules and click Add.
2. Select Detectors from the Trigger list and then select PIR.
3. Select Activate Light as the action.
4. Click OK to save the rule.
5. Go to Detectors > PIR Sensor.
6. Make sure there is movement in front of the camera and adjust the Sensitivity until the light is activated.
7. When satisfied, click Save.
By setting up action rules, the Axis product can be configured to, for example, record video when the PIR sensor detects motion.
If the camera is used in a low - light environment, an action rule that turns on the built-in light can improve image quality of
the recorded video.
For more information on action rules, see
Events, on page 32
