motion is detected by the camera or not. After making any changes, click the Save button to save your changes.
Enable Video
Motion:
Sensitivity:
Percentage:
Enable this to enable the motion detection feature of your camera. Please
note that you must create at least one motion detection box for the camera
to detect motion.
Set how sensitive motion detection will be from 0% to 100%. A low sensitivity
means that there must be large changes between two images in order to
detect motion, and a high sensitivity means that even small changes will
cause motion to be detected.
Low sensitivities may be useful when monitoring an area that has ickering
lights or a window to the outside in view. High sensitivities may be useful
when monitoring an area that rarely changes, such as a storeroom or
warehouse.
Set how much of the area being monitored for motion must change for
motion to be detected. A low percentage means that only part of the area
being monitored has to change to detect motion, and a high percentage
means that most of the area needs to change to detect motion.
Low percentages can be useful when monitoring an area such as a large
room, and high percentages can be useful when you are only monitoring a
specic part of the camera's view, such as a doorway.

CoS and QoS
Class of Service (CoS) and Quality of Service (QoS) allow you to prioritize surveillance trac on your network to ensure that your cameras can
stream video smoothly and remain accessible even when there is heavy trac on your network. Your network must support CoS or QoS in order
to use them. After making any changes, click the Save button to save your changes.
Enable CoS:
Enable QoS:
Enabling the Class of Service setting implements a best-eort policy to
prioritize trac without making any bandwidth reservations.
To use CoS, enable it, enter the VLAN ID to use for the camera, and set the
priority for your Live Video, Live Audio, Event/Alarm, and Management
camera trac.
Enabling QoS allows you to specify a trac priority policy to ensure a
consistent Quality of Service during busy periods. If the network camera is
connected to a router that itself implements QoS, the router's settings will
override the QoS settings of the camera.
To use QoS, enable it and set the priority for your Live Video, Live Audio,
Event/Alarm, and Management camera trac.
