Motion Detection triggers unexpectedly
Changes in thermal radiation
Motion detection is based on changes in thermal radiation in the image. This means that if there
are sudden changes in the ambient temperature, motion detection may trigger mistakenly. Lower
the sensitivity setting to avoid problems with thermal radiation.
Storage and disk management problems
Storage disruption
A storage disruption alarm is sent if a storage device is unavailable, removed, full, locked or if other
read or write problems occur. To identify the source of the problem, check the
System Log
