Note : Please pay attention to the following directions in order to use the Motion

Detection function properly:
•

Adjust the sensitivity level and motion area to fit your requirements.

•

Do not use this function in an area where many objects are continuously moving. In
case of this, change the recording mode to the Continuous (Manual) Recording
mode.

•

Use a high quality camera that does not generate video static or “noise”. The motion
detection algorithm recognizes this “noise” as a motion and records the noise even if
there was no actual motion.

•

Do not point the camera toward a strong and changing lighting source; it can activate
false motion detection.
