Using the Setup Screen Configuring Camera Applications 6 How Motion Detection Works There are two parameters for setting the motion detection: Sensitivity and Percentage. Imagine frame A and frame B are two sequential images. Pixel differences between the two frames are detected and highlighted in gray, and will be compared with the sensitivity setting. Sensitivity is a value that expresses the sensitivity to moving objects. Higher sensitivity settings are expected to sense a slight movement while smaller sensitivity settings tend to neglect it. Percentage is a value that expresses the proportion of "alerted pixels" to all pixels in the motion detection window.

How Motion Detection Works
There are two parameters for setting the motion detection: Sensitivity and
Percentage. Imagine frame A and frame B are two sequential images. Pixel
differences between the two frames are detected and highlighted in gray, and will
be compared with the sensitivity setting.
Sensitivity is a value that expresses the sensitivity to moving objects. Higher
sensitivity settings are expected to sense a slight movement while smaller
sensitivity settings tend to neglect it.
Percentage is a value that expresses the proportion of “alerted pixels” to all pixels
in the motion detection window.
For applications that require higher security management, set higher sensitivity
settings and smaller percentage values.
Configuring Video Recording Settings
Clicking on the
Recording folder
shows a single item, Recording, which allows the
configuration of recording name, status, weekly and time schedule, stream source
and destination of recording. To do recording on network storage, you must add

recording source, recording schedule and recording capacity. A total of two
recording settings can be configured.
