3. PTZ: Configure settings on you DVR to control a PTZ-enabled camera.
4. Motion: Configure the motion detection settings and sensitivity level for each
camera. By default, the DVR has motion recording enabled on every channel,
configured to operate at an average level of sensitivity.
5. Privacy Mask: Create and place "privacy masks" to conceal parts of the
camera's image on the screen. This restricts what can be seen in Live View
and on the video recording– useful when you want to protect personal privacy
or sensitive areas.
6. Video Tampering: Can be used in scenarios where someone may cover up the
camera's field of view or if they are attempting to tamper with the video signal.
7. Video Loss: Regarded as a potential alarm event, and is considered to occur any
time that the DVR doesn't receive an active video signal on any of its inputs.
