DVR will know to follow that time for the recording conditions you specify.
Motion Detection:
1. What is the purpose of motion detection?
• The DX-TL4716E uses motion detection to start alarm recording. The camera field of view
mask needs to be setup with the minimum number of pixels, motion threshold and
sensitivity. When the set mask meets or exceeds the set parameters the DVR will go into
record mode. If the DVR is setup to record motion as an alarm recording then the DVR will
record the video and update the alarm list with the new number.
2. How many camera channels support motion detection?
• All camera channels can be setup for motion recording

• When setting the various motion settings, the DX-TL4716E provides a Test mode which
allows you to test your settings.
4. Can I set different patterns in one motion mask?
• The DX-TL4716E supports multiple patterns in the motion mask.
5. How many sensitivity levels are supported?
• The DX-TL4716E supports 5 different levels of sensitivity settings
6. What type of recording is supported by motion activity?

not record an alarm number in the alarm list.
7. How can I interrupt motion recording to make changes to my record settings?

will provide you with 5 minutes to make needed changes. After 5 minutes, this feature will
