"Camera", "Area", "Recording", "Output" and "Audio/
Tracking".

camera position for detection (See the
"Camera" tab → P.4-40).
3. For setting the detection area (See the "Area" tab → P.4-41).
4. For setting the sensitivity of the motion detection at what degree of variation
in the image activates the motion detection (See the "Area" tab → P.4-41).
5. For setting actions to be performed when motion detection is activated
("Recording" tab → P.4-43).
6. If necessary, set output to an external device and Audio Playback ("Output"
tab → P.4-44, "Audio/Tracking" tab → P.4-44).

● You can set the level of motion detection in the "Area" tab, while checking the
viewer image on the left side of the screen. See "Motion detection status and screen
Tip
display" (→ P.4-46) about screen display in this case. You can also adjust the level
of motion detection during play back in Video Mode of images recorded in Live
Mode (→ P.4-47).
● Motion Detection Function
• The level of motion detection changes depending on resolution, image quality,
and object conditions. To check the detection level, actually perform the motion
detection function.
• Quickly moving objects and objects under dark conditions may not be detected.
• If changes appear in the video by strong light or wind, the VB-C50FSi/VB-C50Fi
may incorrectly detect motion.
