3.1.2 Video Analytics Setup
The Analytics function of the FC-Series camera provides the capability to detect motion and
characterize detected objects as human or vehicle based on size and aspect ratio (height and width).
Using the Setup menu Analytics page (or the Advanced Sensors Control in FSM), up to four motion
detection areas can be created with independent detection settings. When enabled, these detection
areas provide alarm signals to the camera software, and the camera can take an action locally (such
as taking a snapshot or sending an email) or can send the alarm over the network to other systems or
devices. Use the Maintenance menu (requires the admin login), to define the actions resulting from
each alarm condition (Alarm Manager, pg. 3-23).
Analytics page
To use Video Analytics first it is necessary to set up areas (or regions) for detection. In some situations
it may also be useful to use multiple detection regions (up to four) to include (or exclude) different
areas in the scene and to set area-specific detection parameters. The Analytics page allows the user
to add areas with four or eight corners. Each area is assigned an Alarm ID number (0 to 3) based on
the order in which it is created and the available IDs. If an area is deleted, its Alarm Id will be available
for reuse.
Click the gear icon below the image to access the Global
Settings. The pop-up window provides the ability to enable
or disable analytics and set the detection sensitivity.
There are five settings for sensitivity: 0 - low, 25 - mid low,
50 - mid, 75 - mid high, and 100 - high. Sensitivity is set to
whichever of these five options is closest. For example, 30
would go to 25 - mid low. With lower sensitivity, smaller
(distant) objects are not detected. To enable the Analytics
feature, set Analytics Enabled to Yes, click Save, and then
click the gear icon to return to the Analytics Setup page.
