1.
Click Setup > Events > Common Alarm > Motion Detection. Set Detection Mode to Area.
2.
In the Detection Area list, click
to add a new detection area. To delete a detection area, click
.
3.
A box appears on the preview screen. Click and drag the mouse to size and position a detection area.
4.
Set the detection sensitivity and object size.
Moving the slider to the right increases detection sensitivity. When the extent of motion within the
detection area exceeds the set object size, the camera reports an alarm.
Object size specifies the minimum ratio of the object's size to the size of the total detection area before
an alarm will be reported. Therefore, to detect motion of tiny objects, you need to draw a small box
(detection area) in the actual motion area.
Motion detection results are shown in real time. The red lines represent the raised motion detection
alarms. The longer a line, the greater the extent of motion. The denser the lines, the greater the
frequency of motion.
5.
Set the alarm parameters.
Suppress Alarm(s): After an alarm is triggered, the same alarm will not be reported within the set time.
Clear Alarm(s): After an alarm is triggered:
a.
If the same alarm is not triggered within the set time, the alarm will be cleared and the same alarm
can be reported again.
b.
If the same alarm is triggered within the set time, the alarm will not be cleared until the suppress
alarm time expires. Then the same alarm can be reported again.
6.
Set actions to be triggered by motion detection alarm and the plan.
