Camera tamper
You can setup the recorder to alert you when the camera view has changed such as when
someone has deliberately blocked the camera view by spraying paint on the lens or by moving
the camera. Tampering detection only applies when the whole image is covered and all light is
blocked. You cannot select a specific area of the camera screen to detect tampering.
Note: It is strongly recommended not to configure for video tampering when using PTZ dome
cameras.
To set up video tampering detection:
1. From the menu toolbar, click Camera Setup > Camera Tamper.
2. Select a camera to configure for video loss detection.
3. Check the Enable Tamper-proof box to enable the feature.
4. Select the tamper detection sensitivity level by clicking the sensitivity scroll bar. Higher
sensitivity is to the right of the bar.
