Buffalo Surveillance Server 150
Panasonic Camera Motion Detection Configuration
This section is intended for advanced users only and documents only the Panasonic
network camera configuration affected by the Buffalo Surveillance Server. For general and
in-depth information about the Panasonic network camera configuration web interface,
please see your specific Panasonic camera documentation.
When you use Camera policies to add a supported RTSP enabled Panasonic cameras that
feature motion alarms, the Buffalo Surveillance Server automatically configures Panasonic
camera settings and automatically preserves motion detection metadata along with captured
video. This data is then used by the Buffalo Surveillance Server Surveillance Video Manager
(SVM) to create histograms of detected motion. Default settings will be sufficient to meet most
needs. You can, however, manually configure several parameters that affect performance.
Be sure to see your Panasonic cameras' specifications to determine if your camera
features motion alarms.

The Panasonic camera web interface enables you to set customized motion alarms for up to
four individual areas per camera. To enable the Buffalo Surveillance Server to capture motion
metadata, you will set up motion alarms.
