Note: This option is available only when the camera you connected has a PIR sensor built-in.

3) SENSITIVITY

For analog camera, click EDIT to set LS / SS / TS.

Function Description

LS (Level of Sensitivity) LS is to set the sensitivity of comparing two different images. The smaller the value is, the

higher sensitivity for motion detection. The highest sensitivity setting is 00, and the lowest sensitivity setting is 15. The default value is 07.

SS (Spatial Sensitivity) SS is to set the sensitivity for detecting the size of one object (the number of the grids) on

the screen. The smaller the value is, the higher sensitivity for motion detection.

The highest sensitivity setting is 00, and the lowest sensitivity setting is 15. The default setting is 03.

Note: The defau lt se tt ing of SS is 03 , w hi ch me ans once an ob je ct is detecte d m or e t ha n 3 grids , t he

system will get triggered. So the value of SS must be less than the number of grids that you set up for the motion detection area.

TS (Time of Sensitivity) TS is to set the sensitivity regarding how long one object stays in the detection area and

triggers the recording. The smaller the value is, the higher sensitivity for motion detection.

The highest sensitivity setting is 00, and the lowest sensitivity setting is 15. The default setting is 02.

For IP camera, select the detection sensitivity of the selected channel. 2 is the highest sensitivity.

4) MOTION

Select if you want to activate the motion detection function for the selected channel (ON / OFF).
