Operating Instructions (Additional Features) [For assistance, please call: 1-800-272-7033] 41 What is the threshold? The threshold is a value for the camera to detect motions on the image during the motion detection buffering. Setting the threshold lower allows subtler changes to be detected. Setting the threshold higher allows bigger changes that might occupy half the image to be detected. What is the sensitivity? The sensitivity is the brightness change level for the camera to detect as the motion. The high sensitivity setting enables the camera to detect the slight brightness change. Lower the sensitivity to make the camera to detect only the big brightness change. Note Lowering the threshold and heightening sensitivity enable the camera easily to detect the trivial motion on the part of the image. Threshold Detect motions according to the threshold.When the level exceeds the threshold, the camera detects motions.
Operating Instructions (Additional Features) 42 Note The motion detection is activated by object outlines changes and the brightness changes. This feature is designed to alleviate false detections by overall brightness changes due to sunlight. But in this case, the camera may falsely detect the rapid brightness changes by the artificial light such as the fluorescent light. In other cases, motion detection by the Network Camera Recorder detects whole objects and brightness changes. The way to detect motion differs between the camera and Network Camera Recorder. Additionally, if the objects color is absorbed by the background color, the camera is hard to detect the motions. The detecting level depends on the object, resolution, or image quality. Confirm the condition on the Preview window with following the above procedure when setting the Motion Detection.
