„ Motion Sensitivity: There are 10 levels of sensitivity for motion detection. And there are further
sublevels from 9 to 9.9. The default value is set to 9.5. The higher the value, the more sensitive
the system is to the motion. Click the Arrow button to access the two options below:
~ Noise Tolerance: This function reduces false alarms and unwanted recordings caused by
weather or light changes without changing video quality. The level of noise tolerance can be
adjusted. For details, see Video Noise Solutions later in this chapter.
~ Motion Detection Associated Group: Refer to Associated Monitoring later in this chapter for
more details.
„ Mask Filter: Mask instructs the system to ignore movement within the masked area. Mask could
be applied to repetitive motion that should be ignored within the surveillance area, such as street
trees.

„ Invoke Alarm: Sends computer alarm (.wav sound file) on motion detection.
„ Invoke to Send Alerts: Sends an assigned alert (E-Mail/Hotline/SMS) when motion occurs. Use
the drop-down list to specify the motion duration to trigger the alert. The choices include High (0.5
seconds), Normal (1 second), and Low (1.5 seconds). For example, if you choose High, the alert
will be sent out when motion is detected for over 0.5 seconds.
To configure e-mail alerts, see E-Mail Notification later in this chapter; to configure hotline alerts,
see Hotline Notification later in this chapter; to configure SMS alerts, see Short Message Service
in Chapter 10.

lists to select the output module and pin number to perform this function. To configure the output

~
Right-Arrow button: Sets the time to delay the activation of the specified output module.
„ Register Motion Event: Records motion events to System Log.
Note: The Delay Time in Invoke to Send Alerts and Output Module allow you time to turn off the
input device before the system triggers alerts or the output device. The Delay Time will not work if
you stop monitoring or enable the function “Deactivate notification when selected pin ON" in I/O
Application window (Figure 6-7).
