6-3. Motion setting
Click on the “Motion setting” tab, and you will see the following. There are two modes for
“Motion detection”; one is by software, the other is by hardware. Software detection will save
the cost of buying additional hardware (such as sensors) but you are likely to have more false alarms.
Hardware detection tends to be more stable but requires extra hardware.
Before setting up detection, make sure that “Camera configuration” Æ “Recording” Æ “Set up
Schedule” has “Motion detection recording” selected, and also the correct schedule selected,
otherwise motion may not be detected. Also, make sure that “Camera configuration” Æ
“Recording” has “Enable Recording Schedule” enabled. You can confirm that you’ve properly
set up the camera by inspecting the camera button number on the right toolbar – it should now be
greenish (waiting). It will turn red (recording) when motion is detected.
Software detection
Selecting software detection will save you the cost of installing extra devices, but will cause false
alarms more easily.
