Motion detection
The NVR supports Motion Detection Alarm, when the motion has been detected, it will send emails.
To enable motion detection, follow the steps below:
1 Channel---- Select the channel that needs motion detection.
2 Detection switch---- Whether to enable motion detection
3 Set detection area----You can set the alarm area.
4 Human detection---- Whether to turn on detection.
5 Body Rectangle
6 Sensitivity---- It supports three modes: Low, Middle and High. The higher the sensitivity, the camera
will be more easily alarmed. Select one motion sensitivity.
7 Select the alarm Action
There are some alarm indicators:
If you want to receive alarm emails when motion is detected, you must select Send E-mail and set

If you select this checkbox, when the motion has been detected, the NVR will recording and store in
HDD.
If you select this checkbox, when the motion has been detected, the NVR will alert the buzzer.
8 Alarm Schedule
Click the black button up the MON, you will see all time range turn red. When something moving in
the detection area at anytime, the NVR will alarm.
Click the week day words, the corresponding column will be selected. For example, click TUE, the
all column of TUE turns to red, that means during Tuesday whole day, when something moving in
the detection area, the NVR will alarm.

Channel: Select the channel.
Stream: There are two types to identify different streams you have set.
Resolution: The camera supports multiple types in the channel, For example: 2K,3M,1080P, 720P,
VGA. The higher the resolution is, the clearer video will become. But the code flux will become larger
too, and it will take up more bandwidth. (Different models support different specific types. )
Bit Rate: Generally speaking, the larger the bit rate is, the clearer video will become. But the bit rate
configuration should combine well with the network bandwidth. When the bandwidth is very narrow, and
bit rate is large, that will lead to video can not play well.
Frame Rate: Note that a larger frame size takes up more bandwidth. When the video format is 50Hz,
the maximum frame rate is 25 fps. When the video format is 60Hz, the maximum frame rate is 30 fps.
You should lower frame rate when the bandwidth is limited. Normally, when the frame rate above 15,
you can achieve fluently video.

Appendix
5.1 HDD Capacity Calculation
This chapter describes how to determine the size of the HDD you need when you install the NVR for
the first time.
The NVR adopts the MPEG4/H.264 compression technology and its dynamic range is large.
Therefore, the capacity of the HDD depends on the estimated size of files generated in each channel
every hour according to code streams.
Computational formula of HDD Capacity:
Whole HDD Capacity(M)= number of the channels * time in need (hour) * spent of HDD Capacity per
hour (MB/hour)
The meanings of parameters are as follows:
Spent of HDD Capacity per hour(M/hour) =
You can obtain the Bit Rate by using the following methods:
view the value of the Bit Rate.
[Example]
If you select 4M for the bit rate and select four channels for recording and one week of recording is
needed, you can calculate the HDD capacity by using the following formula:
Recording time(hour) =7days*24 hours=168 hour
Spent of HDD Capacity per hour(M/hour)=
