trigger to High Sensitivity.(That way it will pick up subtle changes.) If youre not sure,
set it to Medium. You should experiment to see which setting is best in the intended
environment.
Once triggered, a recording will continue for 5 minutes, then return to standby until
triggered again. After choosing a vibration-sensitivity trigger in the Zetta Widget
software, make sure to click on Sync Settings to DVR and keep the camera’s
three-way switch in Custom mode. The Vibration trigger is disabled in Surveillance
and On-the-go modes. It’s set to High for high-quality video recording; Medium for
medium quality, and Low for low quality. The softwares vibration-trigger is set to Low
by default.
Vibration Standby Mode
Choosing Power Saving can enable 90 days of standby time, but it will cause a slight
delay before recording begins. Fast Wake Up, on the other hand, kicks in instantly.
When you change a setting, make sure to click on Sync Settings to DVR and leave
the camera’s three-position switch in the Custom mode. Vibration Standby Mode
is not applicable to Surveillance and On-the-go modes. As for the Zetta Widget’s
custom settings, the default is Power Saving.
Motion-Trigger Sensitivity
The most useful automatic trigger to cause a video to start recording from a xed-
position camera typically is motion. Someone darts into view, and the camera begins
to record. You can set the trigger’s sensitivity level to High, Medium or Low. If youre
expecting a lot of motion in the camera frame, such as shadows cast by tree limbs
swaying in a breeze in front of an outdoor light, you’ll want to set the sensitivity to
Low so as not to be overwhelmed by too much video. If you expect little activity, you
should set the trigger sensitivity to High. That way, if there are subtle changes, you’ll
be able to pick them up. If youre uncertain, try the Medium setting. In any case, it’s a
good idea to try out your choices in a test run before a mission-critical operation.
Once triggered, a recording will continue for 5 minutes, then return to standby
until triggered again. After choosing a motion-sensitivity trigger in the Zetta Widget
software, make sure to click on Sync Settings to DVR and keep the camera’s three-
way switch in Custom mode. The motion trigger is disabled in Surveillance and On-
the-go modes and disabled by default in the softwares custom settings. Otherwise,
it’s set for High sensitivity for High Quality Video, Medium for medium quality and
Low for low quality.
