•  Sensitivity refers to the audio recognition sensitivity (as a percentage). Moving the 
Sensitivity slider to a higher sensitivity setting increases the audio detection 
sensitivity which will detect more events. 
•  Threshold is the intensity change threshold, or the amount of audio required to 
trigger an event notification. The smaller the Threshold value, the more events will be 
detected. 
 
Note 
The best way to configure audio detection is to experiment with the sensitivity 
and threshold settings while someone is generating sound in front of the 
camera. 
 
5.  The configuration of Audio Detection options is very similar to the configuration for 
Motion Detection. Please see Motion Detection Configurations on page 190 for more 
information on setting time periods and event actions.
