GLOBAL SETTINGS
The Camera Sabotage behavior uses the following global settings:
Sensitivity: Defines the minimum motion or change in the scene that triggers an alarm. The default
setting is 5; settings range from 1 (low) to 10 (high). Any movement with a value that is lower than the
selected setting is regarded as noise. The higher the setting, the greater the chance for a false alarm.
While a lower setting reduces the chance for a false alarm, it might also result in missed alarms.
Enable alarm: Turns on the alarm. If an alarm is enabled, alarm warnings are triggered and displayed in
the Alarm Manager workspace. These events are listed in the system log.
Alarm severity: Defines the severity of an alarm. Available settings include Minor, Normal, Major and
Critical. The default setting is Minor.
Delay before alarm: Defines the delay between the time a violation is detected and the actual trigger of
an alarm. If the violation does not continue past the delay period, an alarm does not trigger. If the violation
lasts longer than the delay period, an alarm is triggered. The default setting is 3 seconds.
RESET ALARM, BACKGROUND, AND DEFAULT SETTINGS
Profiles based on the Camera Sabotage behavior use the following additional commands:
• Reset Alarm: Resets an active alarm. If you reset an alarm manually while an object is still in the
zone, a new alarm is triggered.
• Reset Background: Refreshes the background scene for the camera. Click this command any time
the background scene is changed after the profile has been configured.
• Restore Defaults: Restores the default settings for the behavior in the profile.
