Motion Detection Made Easy
How does it work?
Cameras cannot actually see movement; all surveillance video is just
a series of still images.
Instead, your camera and/or recorder compares each image it takes
with the last one. Even if your camera is set to record snaps once
every minute, it’s still doing this comparison all the time.
When the camera detects that a set of pixels shifts color by a
significant amount, it considers this a motion event. This is why the
camera considers it a motion event when a light gets switched on,
for example, or a tree’s shadow sways against the wall.
What’s the best approach?
For best results, use as small a motion area as is feasible. If you
want to detect whether someone comes through a door, just set the
motion area for that door, not for the whole room.
With a smaller area to check, you can get more reliable results
within that area, and not be bothered by results from areas that do
not matter.
Also, as far as it is possible, ensure that the area you want to detect
has uniform lighting.
How do I set up motion-activated recording?
Fire up the web interface, and click on the Settings icon to get
into the menu system.
Click on Configure the Recorder >
