AXIS M11 Series - Events

Examples:

• Avoid triggering on small objects by setting the 

object size

 level to high.

• Use several small Motion Detection windows rather than one large window, if triggers on small movements or 

objects are desired.

• To reduce the number of triggers if there is a lot of movement during a short period of time, select a high 

history

 

level.

• To only detect flashing light, select low 

sensitivity

. In other cases, a high 

sensitivity

 level is recommended.
