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 20.

Note:

Using the motion detection feature may decrease the camera’s overall performance.
