When recording in Motion mode, click the Motion Settings… button to access the Motion Settings window. Here you configure which

regions of the video image are to be used for motion detection. To do this, simply draw on the video. A semi-transparent overlay will

be drawn over the video; this marks the motion detection region. To clear a motion detection region, click and draw on it.

Swaps masked and clear regions.

Clear

Clears all masked regions.

Set All

Masks the entire image.

Test

Motion

When latched on, the preview window will display motion detection blocks and their real-time motion values overlaid
on masked regions of the video. When motion is detected based on the sensitivity, values are highlighted in yellow
with red text.

Note:

The Trigger Blocks setting does not affect the motion test; the Test

Motion feature is designed to test the motion sensitivity only

Trigger

Blocks

Determines how many motion blocks must meet the motion sensitivity requirement to trigger motion recording.

Motion

Sensitivity

Adjust the Motion Sensitivity slider to control the amount of motion required to trigger recording. Use a very sensitive
setting to detect almost all motion, or a less sensitive setting to require only very large movements to trigger record-
