MOTION DETECTION
Unlike most security cameras, your camera is capable of detecting motion by itself. If you are connecting your camera to a Q-See
security DVR, you will not need to enable this feature as the DVR itself has motion detection capabilities. Enabling motion detection on
the camera while connected to a security DVR can produce adverse results by obscuring the recorded video or generating artifacts
which the DVR will interpret as motion causing it to record unnecessarily.
DETECT SENSE - The camera’s level of sensitivity to motion.
The value range is 0-127.
BLOCK DISP - If this is turned on, the camera will generate
pixelated blocks to highlight motion within its view. It should be noted
that if you have this enabled while the camera is connected to a
security DVR, the DVR will record the blocks as part of the video and
these cannot be removed from the recording.
MONITOR AREA - When enabled, you may select up to four
areas where motion will be detected.

AREA SEL - This indicates which of the four motion detection areas you are working on.
TOP, BOTTOM, LEFT, RIGHT - These settings are used to define the size of the motion detection area.
PRIVACY
This allows you to set up areas within the camera’s view that will be blocked from observation. This may be the location of a
combination lock, keypad or other area that requires privacy. Like Motion Detection above, use of this feature is not recommended
when the camera is connected to a security DVR as it will create artifacts on the video recording which cannot be removed.
AREA SEL - This indicates which of the eight motion detec-
tion areas you are working on.
TOP, BOTTOM, LEFT, RIGHT - As in Motion Detection,
these settings are used to define the size of the motion detection
area.
COLOR - The zone may be set to one of eight colors; red,
green, blue, light green, light blue, light red, white and black.
TRANSPARENCY - This sets the opacity of the privacy
block.
MOSAIC - Events occurring in the privacy area are pixelated.
