Setting Detection Area
When it comes to protecting your loved ones, why not go with the best?
Night Owl's Smart Detection Security System uses both motion sensors and
infrared sensors to ensure the number of false alerts produced are minimal.
Current motion detection technology allows your system to begin recording when a
pixel change is detected by your unit. With the incorporation of infrared sensors,
now your system must detect both a pixel change and a change in heat in order
for your system to record when set to motion. Night Owl utilizes high tech UTC
cabling which sends a signal from the camera to the DVR. If configured, the DVR
will then send a push notification out to your Smart Device which will contain an
embedded video clip of the object triggering the motion and infrared sensors.
In order to set the PIR Detection Area for your PIR camera, first log in to your
DVR's Main Menu then
General > Alarm. Choose the channel you
want to configure from the drop down menu labeled Channel and then click the
Setup button. You will be directed to the detection area screen.
By default, all squares should be red, indicating the entire field of view is set to
detect heat change.
If there is an area within the camera's field of view that you do not want detection
to be active, follow the steps below:
1. Click on a square in one corner of the area you don't want to be detected
2. Click and drag the mouse over the area you want to block
3. Release the mouse and verify you have selected your desired area
4. Right click the mouse and select Save
