How to Configure Moving Object Detection
Set the area you want to detect a mo ving object in as a detection area.
This determines how large the moving ob ject must be in relation to the detection area you set in step 2 for motion 
detection to be triggered.
When the setting values or slider is changed, an indicato r representing the object size is displayed for one 
second in the center of the video display area allowing you to check the size ratio while specifying the setting.
Detection Status for Moving Object Detection
All moving objects detected are shown with profile lines.
If a moving object is smaller than [Objec t Size (%)], its profile lines are white.
If the moving object is larger than [O bject Size (%)], its profile lines take on the same color as the detection area 
indicating “detected” status has been triggered.
1Select [Rectangular] or [Polygonal].
2In the video display area, draw the area in which you would like to detect moving objects (P. 180).
3Configure the size of the object needed for  triggering detection in [Object Size (%)].

Note
If an object is placed in or removed from the moving object detection area, “detected”  status will be triggered for Moving Object 
Detection.
 How to Configure Abandoned Object Detection
Set the area you want to detect an aband oned object in as a detection area.
This determines how large the abandoned  object must be in the detection area you set in step 2 to detect as an 
abandoned object.
When the setting values or slider is changed, an indicato r representing the object size is displayed for one 
second in the center of the video display area allowing you to check the size ratio while setting.
Detection Status for Abandoned Object Detection
All moving objects detected are shown with profile lines.
If [Object Size (%)] and [Duration (Sec)] are not met, profile lines are white.
If both [Object Size (%)] and [Duration (Sec)] are exceeded, t he profile lines take on the same color as the detection 
area, indicating that  “detected” mode ha s been triggered.
1Select [Rectangular] or [Polygonal].

How to Configure Remo ved Object Detection
Set an area around the target objects, for Removed Obje ct Detection. The following methods are available for 
configuring removed object detection.
– Setting a broad area for det ecting the removal of objects
– Specifying the profile lines of objects for removal detection
If you cannot detect the intended objects usin g one of these methods, use the other method.
Setting a Broad Area for Detecting Removed Objects
Configure the following settings with the [Spe cify a profile and detect] checkbox cleared.
Set how large an object that is removed must be to trig ger removed object detection in the detection area set in 
step 2.
When the setting values or slider is changed, an indicato r representing the object size is displayed for one 
second in the center of the video display area allowing you to check the size ratio while specifying the setting.
A removed object is detected when the settin g value in [Object Size (%)] is exceeded.

Specifying the Profile Lines of Objects for Removal Detection
Temporarily remove the target object for removed object detection from the video display area.
▼
Click [Restart intelligent function] (P. 198).
The background image is generated ▼
Return the target object to its original position.
▼
Click [Automatic Profile Settings].
A profile line of the object is drawn using a polygon with up to 32 vertices.
If there are multiple objects detected,  the profile lines are drawn around the object occupying the largest area.
▼
4Configure [Duration (Sec)] for time required for  an object to be detected as a removed object.
5Click [Apply].
Important
 A removed object may not be detected in the following cases.
– When long and thin objects are removed
– When the same object is placed continuously  and some of the objects are removed
– When objects of the same shape are placed together and some of the objects are removed
 If the video inside the detection area changes without an object  being removed, it may be misdetected as a removed object.
1Select [Specify a profile and detect].
2Select [Rectangular] or [Polygonal].
3Use the video display area to configure an area along the profile lines of the object you do not want removed 
(P. 180).
Alternatively, set the profile lines autom atically using the following procedure.

Detection Status for Removed Object Detection
All moving objects detected are shown with profile lines.
If you set [Object Size (%)] and [Duration (Sec)], the following occurs.– If [Object Size (%)] and [Duration  (Sec)] are not met, the profile line is displayed with a white line.
– If both [Object Size (%)] and [Duratio n (Sec)] are exceeded, the profile line is displayed in the same color as
the detection area to indicate that  something has been detected.
If removed object detection is set in [Specify  a profile and detect], the following occurs.
– As long as [Duration (Sec)] is no t exceeded, profile lines are white.
– When [Duration (Sec)] is exceeded, profile lines take on  the same color as the detection area, indicating that an
object has been removed.
 How to Configure Camera Tampering Detection
For [Camera Tampering Detection], the en tire video display area is the detection area. The area cannot be changed.
In [Change Ratio (%)], you can set the ratio of screen change for the entire video display area to determine as 
tampering detection.
When the setting values or slider is changed, an indicator re presenting the ratio of the entire video display area is 
displayed for one second in the center of the video displa y area allowing you to check while specifying the setting.
Important
Set detection areas so that they precisely match the profile lines of the target object. Influence from the target object’s sha dow or 
adjacent objects may result in the target object being recognized  as larger than it actually is and may not trigger removed object 
detection. If this occurs, reconfigure the detection area to outline the recognized target object.
4Follow steps 4–5 in “Setting a Broad Area for Detecting Removed Objects” (P. 184).

Detection Status for Camera Tampering Detection
Moving objects detected are shown with profile lines.
If an object is smaller than [Change Ratio (%)], its profile lines are white.
If the obscured area in the video exceeds [Change Ratio (%)], profile lines take on the same color as the detection 
area, indicating that the came ra has “detected” tampering.
Note
Detection will not be possible for three seconds after the change ratio for camera tampering detection is changed, or when 
switching to camera tampering detection setti ngs from settings for another detection mode.
How to Configure Passing Detection
The detection line for passing moving ob jects is determined by setting the passing direction and object decision 
point.
In the video display area, click the start point of the detection line. ▼
Click another point.
The passing detection line will be set between the start point and next point you clicked.

▼
To configure a polygonal detection line,  click the vertices of the line in order.
You can configure a polygo nal detection line with a maximum of 32 vertices.
▼
Click any of the set vertices.
The detection line is determined.
Note
 Even after configuring a detection line, you can drag each vertex  to change the shape of the detection line and the lines between 
vertices to move the entire detection line.
 Click [Clear Line] to delete a detection line.
If a moving object crosses the detection line in the se lected direction, it will be detected as ‘passed’.
A preview display shows the selected  passing direction on the detection line in the video display area.
If the selected decision point cr osses the detection line, it will be detected as ‘passed’.
The decision point is indicated by a cross  on the detection frame of the moving object.
Set the size ratio of moving objects for the entire screen.
If the moving object exceeds the set value for [Object Size (%)], it will be targeted for passing detection.
When the setting values or slider is changed, an indicato r representing the object size is displayed for one 
second in the center of the video display area allowing you to check the size ratio while specifying the setting.
2In [Passing Direction], select the direction fo r moving objects to pass the detection line.
3In [Decision Point], select the point of a moving object t hat will be used for triggering passing detection when the 
moving object crosses a detection line.
4Configure the size of the moving object needed  for triggering detection in [Object Size (%)].

Note
A ratio of up to 30% can be set in [Object Size (%)] for passing detection.
Detection Status for Passing Detection
All moving objects detected are shown with white profile lines.
When the [Decision Point] of a moving object that meets th e [Object Size (%)] setting crosses a detection line in the 
direction specified in [Passing Direction], the profile lin e changes to the same color as the detection line, and the 
status becomes “detected”.
Notification of a passing detection event occurs only when t he decision line is crossed. Take care in setting the 
operation to be performed when an event occurs.
 How to Configure Intrusion Detection
Set the area for which you want to detect intrusions.
The decision point is indicated by a cross  on the detection frame of the moving object.
Important
Perform a detection test after configuring passing detection to make sure the detection frame of a moving object continues to b e 
displayed.

Set the size ratio of moving objects for the entire screen.
When the setting values or slider is changed, an indicator representing the object size is displayed for one 
second in the center of the video display area allowing you to check the size ratio while specifying the setting.
Detection Status for Intrusion Detection
All moving objects detected are shown with profile lines.
When [Decision Point] of a moving object larger than [O bject Size (%)] enters a detection area and exceeds 
[Duration (Sec)], its profile lines take on the same color as  the detection area, indicating that “detected” mode has 
been triggered.
Configuring Operations for “Detected” ([Event] Tab)
Set operations to be performed upon  detection of changes in a subject.
For details on settings, please refer to “Configurin g Operations for “Detected” ([Event] Tab)” (P. 197).
Checking Event Status
If the intelligent function (moving object detection, abando ned object detection, removed object detection, camera 
tampering detection, passing detection, an d intrusion detection) detects something, the event icon in that row turns green.
The detection status of auto tracking can also be checked in  the Event and Input/Output menu of the Camera Viewer 
(P. 84).
4Configure the size of the moving object needed  to trigger detection in [Object Size (%)].
Important
After the Intrusion Detection is set, please confirm that the system  continues to show profile lines of the detected moving object.
