3. Under
Maximum Idle Time
, enter the longest amount of time the vehicle can remain in one place without
triggering an event, in minutes. If the vehicle remains in any location longer than this amount of time, the
sensor will trigger an event.
4. Under
Idle Distance Radius
, enter the maximum distance from any initial location that the vehicle can move
and still be considered to be in one location. If the vehicle moves more than this distance from any location,
the idle monitor resets and begins calculating the idle time from the next time the vehicle stops.
5. Under
Attach Cameras
, select the cameras to which the Idle Monitor should be linked. For additional
information about attaching cameras to a sensor, see
6. In the
Notifications
section, select the actions you want the Video Gateway to perform when an idle-monitor
event is triggered. For additional information about configuring the notification settings, see

, and then save the settings. They will be implemented after the unit is restarted (see
Configuring a G-Force Sensor
G-Force sensors are optional devices that can be built into MVGor CVG-M units upon customer request. These
sensors detect extreme or sudden motion. They can be configured to be more or less sensitive, as required. At their
highest sensitivity, they can even detect driver behavior that is somewhat erratic. However, at that level of
sensitivity, they may be triggered more frequently than is ideal, because simple bumps in the road and sharp turns
may set them off. At lower sensitivity settings, they only report more significant events, such as crashes or near-
crashes when the driver slams on the brakes.
In addition to the sensitivity, you can also configure the
debounce
; this defines the minimum interval between
distinct events. For example, if the debounce is one 30 seconds, two bumps would be treated as the same event if
