Configure motion detection
To configure motion detection, do the following:
1. Expand Advanced Configuration > Cameras and Storage Information, right-click the
relevant camera > Properties.
2. In the Camera Properties window, select the Recording Properties tab > select the
relevant settings (see "About motion detection" on page 61).
3. Select the Motion Detection tab. If there are any areas to exclude from motion detection
(for example, if the camera covers an area where a tree is swaying in the wind), you can
exclude that area (see "Adjust motion detection: Exclude regions" on page 49) by selecting
it with your mouse.
4. Fill in the relevant properties (see "Motion detection & exclude regions" on page 96). Note
that there are some differences in motion-detection behavior for PTZ cameras (see "About
motion detection and PTZ cameras" on page 63).
Disable or delete cameras
All cameras are enabled by default. This means that video from the cameras can be transferred to
your system if the cameras are scheduled to be online (see "Online period" on page 134).
To disable a camera:
1. Expand Advanced Configuration, expand Cameras and Storage Information, double-
click the camera you want to disable, and clear the Enabled box.
2. Save your configuration changes by clicking Save in the yellow notification bar in the
upper-right corner of the Management Application.
