Setting Up Motion Detection
Motion detection service must be enabled before the Motion tab is displayed in the Devices page.
1. Click the zone button you want to configure. The currently selected zone button changes to a lighter color. A colored motion grid (light blue,
magenta, or green) appears as an overlay on the video pane, showing all the areas where motion will be detected. (If no motion zones have
been set, this grid does not appear.)
2. Create the motion detection grid by selecting the Draw tool:
• Box: Draws a box grid.
• Point: Adds individual squares.
3. Edit the motion detection grid by selecting the Erase tool:
• Box: Erases a box grid.
• Point: Erases individual squares.
4. While drawing or erasing, you can use the Undo button to reverse your last actions one step at a time. Redo cancels the actions of the Undo
button.
5. Edit the zone’s motion settings (refer to Table I on page 70).
6. To preview the results of your motion settings, click Preview Motion. Light blue boxes appear wherever motion is detected in the camera’s
field of view. While Preview Motion is selected, you can edit the motion detection settings, but you cannot use the drawing tools to change
the shape of the motion detection zone.
7. Click OK to confirm the motion settings. Click Cancel to exit without saving the change.
8. To confirm the settings and remain in the Setup screen, click Apply. To confirm the change and exit the Setup screen, click OK. To exit the
Setup screen without saving the settings, click Cancel.
Clearing Motion Detection Settings
Click Clear. All three motion zones are cleared.
