6. Intelligent Functions
6.1 Face Detection
(Requires supporting camera)
NOTE:
Before enabling Face Detection or Tripwire, ensure that you’ve configured Intelligent recording schedules (refer to
2.1.5 Configuring Recording Schedules), or these functions will not work.
NOTE:
Only one channel can use Face Detection. Face detection and other IVS cannot be used at the same time!
Intelligent Video Systems (IVS) let your CCTV system go beyond surveillance, delivering advanced & powerful detection
tools. When properly configured, these functions can alert you to suspicious activity in real time via email/smartphone
notification and let you easily search through surveillance footage via event history.

• Intrusion
- Detect when any object intrudes inside a set zone in the video.
•
Abandoned/Missing Object
