You can determine what constitutes positive motion detection by automatically
calibrating the sensitivity value.
Before you begin
Make sure there is no motion in the camera’s field of view (0 motion blocks).
What you should know
If your camera is located outdoors, the accuracy of this test might be affected due to
wind, moving trees, and so on.
Procedure
-
Open the Video task.
-
Select the camera to configure, and click .
-
Select one of the following options from the Auto calibrate
drop-down list:
- Current zone
- Calibrate the sensitivity for motion detected in the currently selected motion
zone on the video image.
- All zones
- Calibrate the sensitivity for motion detected in all the motion zones on the video
image.
- All motion
- Calibrate the sensitivity for motion detected on the whole video image.
Different sensitivity values are tested to find the highest value without detecting
motion in the image. This test accounts for any unwanted background noise that your
camera may pick up and consider as motion.
