Record on a Regular Basis (Repeating Weekly Schedules) To use motion detection, you must create a schedule with motion detection using the camera's schedule setting tool. Note [Recording Settings] tab (1) • If the camera supports four motion detection areas, tabs named [Area 1] through [Area 4] are displayed in the recording settings area. You can specify settings individually for each motion detection area. 5 • The [Area Name] box displays the name of the area that is registered in the camera. Setting a Recording Schedule • To use a camera for motion detection, you must configure the motion detection settings on the camera. For details, see the camera manual. • When using the camera for motion detection with more than one motion detection area, you can specify the event priority for each area. • Motion detection is suspended when the camera is panning, tilting or zooming, irrespective of the motion detection settings. • If motion is detected in multiple motion detection areas that have the same priority, recording will start with the area having the lowest number. (1) [Priority] Select the priority of the motion detection events. For details, see "Check Events" (p. 109). The other settings are the same as those for continuous recording. For details, see "Continuous Recording Settings" (p. 82). Using the Storage Server for Motion Detection Important The load on the Storage Server CPU increases when motion detection is performed on the Storage Server. We strongly recommend that you use the motion detection on the camera, if it is available. 4 Configure the motion detection settings on the [Settings] tab. [Settings] tab (1) (2) Note (3) If you select [MPEG-4] or [H.264] in [Video Format], the [Storage (4) Server] option in [Detect Motion Using] cannot be selected. Note (5) also that if you select [MPEG-4] or [H.264] in other recording (6) modes besides motion detection recording, the [Storage Server] option still cannot be selected. 1 Click [Motion Detection Recording] in the recording mode list and select the check box. (7) 2 Select [Storage Server] in [Detect Motion Using]. 3 Configure the recorded video and event settings on the [Recording Settings] tab.
