Congure Built-In Motion Detection

The motion detection built into Axis network cameras and video encoders detects moving objects within congured motion

detection windows:

• Include windows dene areas where motion should be detected

• Exclude windows dene areas within an include window that should be ignored (areas outside include windows are

always ignored)

For each motion detection window you can congure:

Object size - Object size is relative to the region size. At a high level, only very large objects are detected. At a low level even

very small objects trigger an event.

History - History denes how long an object needs to be in a region before it is considered to be non-moving. At a high level an

object that appears in the region will trigger the motion detection for a long period before it is considered a non-moving part of the

image. At a low level an object that appears in the region will trigger motion detection for only a very short period.

Sensitivity - Sensitivity denes the difference in luminance between the background and the object. At a high level, an ordinary

colored object on ordinary backgrounds will trigger motion. At a low level, only very bright objects on a dark background or

very dark objects on a light background will trigger an event.

To set up motion detection windows, follow these steps:

1. In Edit Motion Detection Recording Settings, click Motion Settings to open Edit Motion Detection.

2. Click Add to create a new motion detection window. Select Include to create an include window or select Exclude

to create an exclude window, as required.

3. Use the mouse to drag the window to the desired area. To resize, drag the sides of the window.

4. Set the Object size, History and Sensitivity. Begin with a predened setting and if needed ne adjust the settings using

the sliders while looking in the Activity window while there is a desired amount of motion in the motion detection window.

5. Click OK to save settings.
