SECTION 4: USING VIEWER
NOTE
4CIF images are interlaced. When printing an image where the source was a dynamic (moving) image, the system captures
“Even” and “Odd” elds to create the frame. Greater clarity can sometimes be gained by viewing these elds separately.
SEARCH > TOOLS MENU
The Search option provides its own individual set of Tools for enhancing images (Image Post Processing), doing Sensor Event
searches, and other functions.
1. To access this set of tools, from the Search window, click the TOOLS button. This opens the menu shown here.
2. Select a tool.
Search Tools are described in the following sections.
USING THE SMART SEARCH TOOL
Smart Search (also called “Museum Search”) lets you analyze video for movement after it has been recorded. Beginning with a
video recording, you draw motion-sensitive areas directly onto the image. Any activity occurring within these areas creates an event
that the software then logs to the Smart Search list.
For example, you might want to know the specic time(s) that cars entered and exited a parking lot, but you did not set up motion
sensitive areas to detect these as they occurred. With Smart Search, you can return to the video and perform a post-video analysis of
it. Smart Search logs any motion found in the areas you setup up for motion detection.
RUNNING A SMART SEARCH
1. From the main DIGIOP™ window, select TOOLS > Search. The main Search window opens.
2. Click on a camera image you want to analyze. The border of the selected camera is highlighted.
