Motion Detection
Motion detection enables the camera to monitor specific areas of your home or office for
movement. You can adjust the sensitivity which determines when motion is detected by
the camera. When motion is detected, it will trigger to send a notification and record video
to your microSD card.
1. Tap the button next to
Motion Detection
to turn on (as shown).
2. Tap on the area you want the camera to detect motion. By default the entire screen
will be selected. Click the trash can icon to clear the area.
3. Select the sensitivity. A low sensitivity setting means that there must be major changes
between two sequential images in order for motion to be detected. A high sensitivity
setting means that even small changes will result in motion being detected.
Low sensitivity can be useful when monitoring an area that has flickering lights, or
through a window to the outside. High sensitivity may be useful when monitoring an
area that rarely changes, such as a storeroom or warehouse with little activity.
4. To save your settings, tap the
<
in the upper left corner. To leave the screen without
saving the settings, click the
X
in the upper right corner.
