How to Set Up a Motion Grid
A motion grid can be helpful for when you want to specify the area in which motion detection is enabled. By default the entire frame will be tracked for motion. Setting up a more specific motion detection area can be helpful for reducing false alarms, caused by things like passing cars or other public activity.
All areas covered by the grid are actively detecting motion. By default, all cameras detect 100% of their field of view out of the box.
To reduce the area covered by the grid, click and hold the left-button on the mouse and drag over the area where you want to stop detecting motion.
As you can see above, the roadway has been removed from the motion detection area, so now cars driving down the road will not trigger any motion detection recordings or alerts.
Select the “Save” icon to save your changes.
The options on the bar, from left to right are:
1. Sensitivity Slider: Determines how much movement in the camera’s image will trigger motion detection. A higher sensitivity value will require more significant movement to trigger motion detection.
A sensitivity of 1 will be the most sensitive and require the least amount of movement to trigger motion detection.
2. Select All: The entire screen is sensitive to motion detection
3. Select None: Removes the Grid. None of the screen is sensitive to motion detection
4. Test Sensitivity: Click and drag across the screen to simulate movement and ensure your sensitivity settings will pick movement.
5. Save Settings: Select to save any changes to your sensitivity or motion grid settings.
6. Close Menu: Closes the Sensitivity Menu. Right click on the mouse to restore the menu.
