36 AXIS 243Q Blade - Event configuration
Motion detection
In the Motion Detection menu, you can configure the video source(s) for motion detection.
The motion detection feature is used to generate an alarm whenever movement occurs or
stops in the image. The AXIS 243Q Blade can use a maximum of 10 Include/Exclude
windows per video input.
• Include windows target specific areas within the image
• Ex
clude windows are areas to be ignored within the Include window
Once configured, the motion detection windows appear in a list when motion detection is
selected to trigger an event. See How to set up a triggered event above.
Note:
Using the motion detection feature may decrease overall performance in the video server.
