Camera Tampering
The camera tampering application generates an alarm whenever the camera is
repositioned, or when the lens is covered, sprayed or severely put out of focus.
The Minimum duration parameter defines the time that must elapse before the alarm goes
off after the tampering. This helps prevent false alarms.
Check the Alarm for dark im ages box if there should be an alarm when the camera lens is
sprayed and the image is dark.
Motion Detection
Motion detection is used to generate an alarm whenever movement occurs (or stops) in the
video image. A total of 10 Include and/or Exclude windows can be configured.
• Included windows target specific areas within the whole video image
• Excluded windows define areas within an Include window that should be ignored
(areas outside Include windows are automatically ignored)
Once configured, the motion detection windows appear in the list of available triggers, for
triggering events. See “How to set up a triggered event” on page 37.
Note:
Using the motion detection feature may decrease the camera’s overall performance.
