Go to Alarm
→
Motion Detection to set motion detection alarm.
1.
Check “Enable” check box to activate motion based alarms. If unchecked, the camera will
not send out any signals to trigger motion-based recording to the NVR or CMS, even if
there is motion in the video.
Alarm Holding Time
: It refers to the interval time between the adjacent motion detections.
For instance, if the alarm holding time is set to 20 seconds, once the camera detects a motion,
it will go to alarm and would not detect any other motion in 20 seconds. If there is another
motion detected during this period, it will be considered as continuous movement; otherwise,
it will be considered as a single motion.
Alarm Out:
If selected, this would trigger an external relay output that is connected to the
camera on detecting a motion based alarm.
Trigger SD Snapshot:
If selected, the system will capture images on motion detection and
save the images on an SD card.
Trigger SD Recording:
If selected, video will be recorded on an SD card on motion
detection.
Trigger Email
: If
“Trigger Email” and “Attach Picture” are checked (email address must be set
first in the Email configuration interface), the captured pictures and triggered event will be sent
to the set addresses.
Trigger FTP
: If
“Trigger FTP” and “Attach Picture” are checked, the captured pictures will be
sent into FTP server address. Please refer to
