 Enable and disable motion detection (on page 121)

 Specify motion detection settings (on page 121)

Enable and disable motion detection

You specify the default setting of motion detection for cameras on the Tools > Options > General tab.

To enable or disable motion detection afterwards for a camera:

 Select or clear the Motion tab's Motion detection check box.

Important: When you disable motion detection for a camera, motion detection-related rules for the

camera do not work.

Specify motion detection settings

You can specify settings related to the amount of changes required in a camera's view in order for the

change to be regarded as motion. You can for example specify intervals between motion detection

analysis and areas of a view in which motion should be ignored.

About dynamic sensitivity

Motion detection is per default set up for dynamic sensitivity. To adjust the sensitivity level manually,

see Enable manual sensitivity (on page 121).

Milestone recommends that you do not enable manual sensitivity because:

 With dynamic sensitivity, the system calculates and optimizes the sensitivity level automatically

and suppresses the motion detections that come from noise in the images.

 Dynamic sensitivity improves motion detection at nighttime, where the noise in the images

often triggers false motion.

 The system is not overloaded from too much recording.

 The users are not missing results from too little recording.

Enable manual sensitivity

The sensitivity setting determines how much each pixel in the image must change before it is

regarded as motion.

1. Select the Motion tab's Manual Sensitivity check box.

2. Drag the slider to the left for a higher sensitivity level, and to the right for a lower sensitivity

level.

The higher the sensitivity level, the less change is allowed in each pixel before it is regarded

as motion.

The lower the sensitivity level, the more change in each pixel is allowed before it is regarded

as motion.

Pixels in which motion is detected are highlighted in green in the preview image.
