The other settings are the same as those for continuous

recording. For details, see “Continuous Recording

Settings” (p. 76).

To use motion detection, you must create a schedule with

motion detection using the camera’s schedule setting

tool.

Note

• If the camera supports four motion detection areas, tabs

named [Area 1] through [Area 4] are displayed in the

recording settings area. You can specify settings individually
for each motion detection area.

• The [Area Name] box displays the name of the area that is

registered in the camera.

• To use a camera for motion detection, you must configure the

motion detection settings on the camera. For details, see the

camera manual.

• When using the camera for motion detection with more than

one motion detection area, you can specify the event priority

for each area.

• Motion detection is suspended when the camera is panning,

tilting or zooming, irrespective of the motion detection settings.

• If motion is detected in multiple motion detection areas that

have the same priority, recording will start with the area having
the lowest number.

Using the Storage Server for Motion Detection

Note

If you select [MPEG-4] or [H.264] in [Video Format], the [Storage

Server] option in the [Detect Motion Using] box cannot be
selected. Note also that if you select [MPEG-4] or [H.264] in other

recording modes besides motion detection recording, the

[Storage Server] option still cannot be selected.

[Recording Settings] tab

➀ [Priority]

Select the priority of the motion detection events. For

details, see “Check Events” (p. 104).

The other settings are the same as those for continuous

recording. For details, see “Continuous Recording

Settings” (p. 76).

Hint

You can use this setting to individually enable or disable

recording for each area. For example, you may want to record

when motion is detected around a vault, but not record when
motion is detected around an entrance.

[Settings] tab

➀ [Analysis Frame Rate]

Specify the motion detection frame rate (frames per

second).

Important

The load on the Storage Server CPU increases when motion
detection is performed on the Storage Server. We strongly

recommend that you use the motion detection on the camera, if

it is available.

Click [Motion Detection Recording] in the recording
mode list and select the check box.

Select [Storage Server] in the [Detect Motion Using]
box.

Configure the recorded image and event settings on

the [Recording Settings] tab.

Configure the motion detection settings on the

[Settings] tab.
