Motion Area
When Motion Detection is used as the Alarm Type, motion can be detected on the entire
channel screen, or you can select a sub set of up to 7 manually configured motion
detection areas. IP cameras detect motion in the camera itself, and send motion
detection information to the Server. For analog cameras, the H.264 Video Encoder does
the actual detection of motion on the video image and the Server software receives
these alerts and takes action accordingly.
Note that the default Motion Detection area covers the entire screen, so if left undefined,
the entire screen is used to detect motion. Also, Motion Detection settings cannot be
copied to other cameras.
Click anywhere in the screen and drag to draw a rectangle of the area you want to
select. Repeat elsewhere on the screen to create up to 7 such areas.
Motion Sensitivity: This setting controls the Server's sensitivity to Motion alerts from
the H.264 Video Encoder. 1 is most sensitive, 10 is least sensitive. You can also
increase sensitivity by dividing the view into multiple Motion Areas.
Clear All Motion Areas: Click this button to clear all Motion Detection areas for this
Camera.
