About motion detection and PTZ cameras

Motion detection generally works the same way for pan-tilt-zoom (PTZ) cameras as it does for regular cameras. However, you cannot configure motion detection separately for each of a PTZ camera's preset positions.

In order to avoid unwanted recordings, notifications and more, the system automatically disables motion detection while a PTZ camera moves between two preset positions. After a number of seconds has passed, the system automatically enables motion detection again. This period of time is known as the transition time and is specified on the PTZ camera's PTZ patrolling properties.
