Detection Area
: Clicking this button opens a pop-up screen that can be used to set detection areas.

When the setup button is clicked, a live stream of the video is shown. The user can then set up to 4 regions,
each with their own region name, sensitivity (1-100), and threshold (1-100). Each region has a specific color, and
the region selector tool is displayed when the mouse is moved to the top of the screen.
Sensitivity is the amount of change required to increase the motion detected by a percentage. The lower the
sensitivity, the more movement is required to trigger an alarm.
Threshold is the level that the motion detection needs to reach to trigger an alarm. The lower the threshold, the
more likely that motion will trigger an alarm.
To designate a zone, click and drag the mouse over the area desired. When a colored box is displayed over the live
feed, that area is now enabled for motion detection.
After the motion detection zone is set, click the enter button to exit the motion detection screen.
Remember to click the save button on the motion detection settings screen, otherwise the motion detection zones
will not go into effect. Clicking the cancel button to leave the motion detection zone and will not save the zone
setup.
