Low sensitivity can be useful when monitoring an area that has ickering
lights, or through a window to the outside. High sensitivity may be useful when
monitoring an area that rarely changes, such as a storeroom or warehouse with
little activity.

motion to be detected. A low percentage means that only part of the area being
monitored needs to change to detect motion, and a high percentage means
that most of the area needs to change to detect motion.
A low percentage can be useful when monitoring a large area, such as an entire
room. A high percentages can be useful when you are only monitoring a specic
