Under Motion Detection Setting, enter values for the following parameters.
Sampling pixel interval [1-10]
This item is used to examine the differences between two frames. Users can set the
interval for the sampling of pixels. The default value is 1. For instance, if users set the
interval as 3, the camera system takes one sampling pixel from every 3 pixels of each
row and each column within the detection area (see the figure below). The alarm is
triggered when differences are detected.
Detection level [1-100]
The default level is 10. This parameter sets the detection level for the sampling pixels.
The lower the value, the more sensitive for each sampling pixel.
Sensitivity level [1-100]
The default level is 80, which means that if 20% or more pixels in the detection window
change, the system will detect motion. The higher the value, the more sensitive it is. As
the value increases, the red horizontal line in the motion indication window will be
lowered accordingly.
Time interval (sec) [0-7200]
The default interval is 10. This value is the duration in seconds between each detected
motion.

Under Triggered Action, select Enable alarm output to activate the Alarm Output
configuration.

event of an alarm. For more information, see Alarm trigger actions in section

If applicable, under File name, specify a file name for a file to be sent when an alarm
occurs, and then select an option to add a suffix to the file name or overwrite the
previous file. For more information, see Specifying file name conventions in section
Application.
