Motion Detection
Motion detection is used to generate an alarm whenever movement occurs (or stops) in the camera’s field of view. A total of
10 Include and/or Exclude windows can be configured.
•
Included
windows target specific areas within the whole image
•
Excluded
windows define areas within an Include window that should be ignored (areas outside Include windows are
automatically ignored)
Once configured, the motion detection windows appear in the list of available triggers, for triggering Events. See
