Applications > Shock detection
The camera comes with a shock accelerometer. The shock sensor can detect impacts
to the camera. For example, when a person deliberately tries to destroy the camera, the
camera can report the event to the administrator.
Normally, a 5kgm impact can cause the detected impact level to surge to 50% on the
scale. Configure the Alarm Level to a preferred percentage on the chart. Click the
Enable

checkbox and click

to complete the configuration.
Shock Level
You should then go to Event settings to configure the shock detection as a triggering
source. See page 119 for Event configuration.
The measurement range of the sensor is ±16G.
For every one G force (g = 9.8 m/s²) perceived, the sensor acquires a reading of 512.
The value acquired by a 2 G acceleration will look like the following:
512 * 2 /16 = 64
Suppose that all 3-axis readings are equal (for simplicity reasons only), the shock level
shown on the Shock detection chart will be (64 + 64 +64 ) *100 /1024 = 18.75.
