Enable manual sensitivity to define motion

The sensitivity setting determines how much each pixel in the image must change before it is regarded as motion.

  1. In the Site Navigation pane, select Devices, and then select Cameras.
  2. Select the relevant camera in the Overview pane.
  3. Select the Motion tab's Manual Sensitivity check box.
  4. Drag the slider to the left for a higher sensitivity level, and to the right for a lower sensitivity level.

    The higher the sensitivity level, the less change is allowed in each pixel before it is regarded as motion.

    The lower the sensitivity level, the more change in each pixel is allowed before it is regarded as motion.

    Pixels in which motion is detected are highlighted in green in the preview image.

  5. Select a slider position in which only detections you consider motion are highlighted.

You can compare and set the exact sensitivity setting between cameras by the number in the right side of the slider.
