Motion Detection - Axis Q1910 User Manual

Motion Detection

Motion detection is used to generate an alarm whenever movement occurs (or stops) in the camera's field of view. A total of
10 Include and Exclude windows can be configured.
Included windows target specific areas within the whole image
•
• Excluded windows define areas within an Include window that should be ignored (areas outside Include windows are
automatically ignored)
Once configured, motion detection appears in the list of available triggers, for triggering events. See How to set up a triggered
event, on page 33.
Note:
Using the motion detection feature may decrease the camera's overall performance.
