The following devices have a Motion tab:
On the Motion tab, you can enable and configure motion detection for the selected camera. Motion detection configuration is a key element in your system: Your motion detection configuration determines when the system generates motion events and typically also when video is recorded.
Time spent on finding the best possible motion detection configuration for each camera helps you later avoid, for example, unnecessary recordings. Depending on the physical location of the camera, it may be a good idea to test motion detection settings under different physical conditions such as day/night and windy/calm weather.
Before you configure motion detection for a camera, Milestone recommends that you have configured the camera's image quality settings, for example resolution, video codec and stream settings on the Settings tab. If you later change image quality settings, you should always test any motion detection configuration afterwards.
If you have defined areas with permanent privacy masks on the Privacy masking tab, you can choose to display the privacy masks on the Motion tab by selecting the Show privacy masks check box.
Note: There is no motion detection within areas covered by permanent privacy masks.
You can configure all the settings for a group of cameras, but you would typically set the exclude regions per camera.
