26 TruVision DVR 11 User Manual
The DVR can be set up to trigger an alarm if it detects motion and to record it.
You can then search these recorded motion activities for specific incidents. If
enabled, motion detection recording can help increase the number of days your
DVR can record.
You can mask out any areas of motion on an analog camera display that you do
not want to trigger a recording such as a flag on a pole or a moving tree.
Select the level of sensitivity to motion as well the target size so that only objects
that could be of interest can trigger a motion recording. For example, recording
is triggered by the movement of a person but not that of a cat.
You can set up both the schedule and areas sensitive to motion detection for
each camera individually or easily copy the settings of one camera to other
cameras.
