Getting started

Description

Detection resolution

Specify whether the full image or a selected percentage of the
image should be analyzed. For example, by specifying 25%, every
fourth pixel is analyzed instead of all pixels, reducing the system
resources used but also offering less accurate motion detection.

Properties available in XProtect Enterprise only:

Keyframe Only

Select Keyframe only if you want motion detection to take place
only on keyframes of the video stream to reduce the system
resources used on motion detection.

Manage user access wizard

Use the Manage user access step to add individual users so they can access the system and its
clients. The access summary at the end of the wizard lists the cameras your users have access to.

Important: When you use the wizard, all users you add get access to all cameras, including any new
cameras added at a later stage. You can, however, specify access settings, users and user rights (see
"Configure user and group rights" on page 165) separately, see Configure server access (on page
159). You cannot add users to groups (see "Add user groups" on page 164).

server.
