MxEasy User Manual: System Configuration
Note
We recommend testing the eects of these settings after configuring the process
parameters. Only after the settings have been tested can it be guaranteed that
MxAnalytics delivers usable data suitable for future evaluation. It is not possible to
perform or test evaluations or export processes if the recording is not activated, as
described in
Section 3.8, „Using MxAnalytics“ .
Alternatively, you can activate the recording directly and delete any data saved during
setup by reformating the recording once configuration is completed.
To check the settings, click on OK and open the MxAnalytics settings via the Camera|
MxAnalytics Settings menu. You can check the eect of the settings made in the camera
live image before you define the detection areas and counting lines in the next step. Allow
one or more people to move through the live image and check in the camera’s live image
to see whether the movement of people is followed with a track color.
Next, define the detection areas, counting lines, and object size and check in the camera´s live
image to see whether the counting lines have the correct label and label color, for example.
Activate the storage of the data generated once you have correctly set up MxAnalytics
and tested the settings.
4.5.2 Defining Detection Areas, Counting Lines And Object Size
Tracking and Evaluating Movements (Heatmaps)
Select the areas in the camera image that are to be evaluated as detection areas. MxAnalytics
can capture and evaluate movements in the camera image. The frequency of the move-
ments is shown in a heatmap.
To define the detection areas, open MxAnalytics via the Camera| MxAnalytics Settings
menu. The dynamic toolbar for defining detection areas, counting lines and object size
opens at the lower edge of the program window.
