My Cameras - Video Motion Settings
The Client has the ability to select up to four specific
motion areas of a particular camera. These areas
should be where they would like video capture and/or
email alerts of activity. They are usually placed at door
entries, cockpit areas, or boarding platforms to name a
few. It is designed to give the owner video clips of every
person on or off the vessel. It is important not to focus
on areas that are constantly moving such as Docks with
People traffic, shimmering water, or active waterways.
This is because the user does not want to be inundated
with false triggers in high traffic changing activity areas.
As a general rule, it is best to focus on areas on the
vessel.
To select an area to detect motion in, drag the
respective color square over the area you wish to
monitor. You can reduce or expand the box by pressing
“Shift” over the lower right hand corner. Once the
desired area is boxed in, assure that the
“Active” box is
checked along with the respective color (Figure 6).
The
“Trigger on change %” should
(under most
circumstances) be about 70%. That said, some
sensitivity adjustment may be necessary depending on
the particular camera setup.
