When the face matching function is activated, it detects facial features of people in images, matches them
against similar facial features recorded earlier or contained in live images, and issues an alarm when a match is
found.
Important:
• Face matching does not work while recorded images are being played or the setup window is displayed.
• Face matching alarm does not apply event recording.
• When using the face matching function on the operation screen, the display changes to 1-screen or
4-screen display, on the wide view screen, it changes to 3-screen display. It will not work on the multiscreen
(1-screen or 4-screen display when the screen segments are equally divided by the setting).
• When "Alarm action" is selected for "Mode" of "Advanced face matching alarm setup", the sequential dis-
play on the live monitor stops.
• When several people appear in images at the same time, face matching may take time, or it may not be
possible to match all facial images.
• A detected person displayed on the face matching result window may sometimes not be the same as the
one who has registered the facial image.
• Refer to the installation guide for setup and further information about the face matching function.
