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. Motion detection is configured in Include and Exclude windows, of
which up to 40 (10 per video source) can be configured.
• Include windows target specific areas within the whole image
• Exclude windows are areas to be ignored within the Include window
Once configured, the motion detection windows will appear in a list when motion
detection is selected to trigger an event. See How to set up a triggered event above.

Using the motion detection feature may decrease overall performance in the video server.
