Configuration
Initial configuration tasks list
The checklist below lists the initial tasks for configuring your system. Some of them, you may already have
completed during installation.
A completed checklist does not in itself guarantee that the system matches the exact requirements of your
organization. To make the system match the needs of your organization, Milestone recommends that you
monitor and adjust the system continuously.
For example, it is a good idea to test and adjust the motion detection sensitivity settings of individual cameras
under different physical conditions, including day/night and windy calm weather, once the system is running.
The setup of rules, which determine most of the actions your system performs, including when to record video,
is another example of configuration that you can change according to your organization's needs.
