When the setup button is clicked, a live stream of the video is shown. The user can then set up to 4
regions, each with their own region name, sensitivity (1-100), and threshold (1-100). Each region
has a specific color, and the region selector tool is displayed when the mouse is moved to the top of
the screen.
Sensitivity is the amount of change required to increase the motion detected by a percentage.
The lower the sensitivity, the more movement is required to trigger an alarm.
Threshold is the level that the motion detection needs to reach to trigger an alarm. The lower
the threshold, the more likely that motion will trigger an alarm.
To designate a zone, click and drag the mouse over the area desired. When a colored box is
displayed over the live feed, that area is now enabled for motion detection.
After the motion detection zone is set, click the enter button to exit the motion detection screen.
Remember to click the save button on the motion detection settings screen, otherwise the
motion detection zones will not go into effect. Clicking the cancel button to leave the motion
detection zone and will not save the zone setup.
