TABLE 7-9. Motion Detection Settings

Variable Allowable

Values

Description

Sensitivity Level

1 to 99

The best method for determining where to set the level for your needs
is to experiment with the values. The Value of 1 is the least sensitive
value but less prone to false triggers. The value of 99 is the most
sensitive value and is most susceptible to false triggers.

You do not need to enable the motion detection to test its functionality.
Simply set this parameter and observe the Motion Detect Status in the
Live Video page.

Megabytes. A value of 1000 will reserve 1000 Mbytes. A value of 0
will have the camera automatically allocate the memory.

Management
Type Options

• Ring Memory

There are 2 methods of managing files on the memory card:
• Fill and Stop will stop recording additional images once the

memory card is full or the allocated memory size is reached.

• Ring Memory management will start deleting the oldest files once

the memory card is full or the allocated memory size is reached.

Still Images for the External Trigger Capture can use 1 of 2 settings.

Read Only Field

This is a read only field. The Name of the Main Folder where the still

Sub Folder
Options

• Year_Month_

Day_Taken

• Year_Month_

Taken

An option is given to store images in a subfolder named by

option will have some performance advantages when a large number of

up the storing and file management process. Speed advantages are
only noticeable if the number of files in the Year_Month folder will
exceed 1000.
