Minimum System Requirement

Intelligent Surveillance Solution

LevelOne IP CamSecure

Parameter definition: For IP network camera S= M*N M: parameter of resolution of IP camera N: FPS of Camera

For example: 8 channels system

a) 1 camera at 1 Mega-pixel resolution with 10FPS b) 2 cameras at D1 resolution with 15FPS c) 5 cameras at CIF resolution with 30FPS

Answer: a) M=14; N=10, S=14*10=140. b) M=3; N=15, S =3*15=45 c) M=1; N=30, S =1*30=30 S of All Cam. = 1*140+2*45+5*30=380 Therefore, the Minimum Hardware Requirement is A level.

Parameter definition: For Capture card

S=M*N+P P: parameter of capture card For FCS-8004: P = 60, FCS-8005v1: P = 60, FCS-8006: P = 120

For example: 16 channel system

a) 1 camera at 1 Mega-pixel resolution with 10FPS b) 2 cameras at D1 resolution with 15FPS c) 5 cameras at CIF resolution with 30FPS d) 8 cameras with 2pcs FCS-8006

a) M=14; N=10, S=14*10=140 b) M=3; N=15, S=3*15=45 c) M=1; N=30,

S=1*30=30 d) P=120 S of All Cam.=1*140+2*45+5*30+2*120=620 Therefore, the

Minimum Hardware Requirement is B level.

 General Motion: Detect all movements in the defined area.  Define Detection Zone: Left click and drag to draw a detection zone. You may

define more than one zone on the screen by repeating the process.

 Sensitivity: Modify the sensitivity setting with the slider. Sliding rightwards will

increase the sensitivity level, meaning the slightest movement will trigger the alarm; in contrast, sliding leftwards will reduce the sensitivity for movement detection.

Note: Configuring an appropriate sensitivity level reduces the possibility of a false

alarm. For instance, you can lower the sensitivity level to avoid the alarm being triggered by a swinging tree in the breeze.

 Interval: Move the slider control to the right to increase time interval so that the alarm will only be

triggered when the movement lasts longer. Move to the left to reduce the time interval.

 Stop When Found: Check the option to have the video stop where motion was detected. Uncheck to

have video continuously run to detect all events available. Results will show in a search result box. Click on the listed event in the box to jump to the point in the video where motion was detected.

2.3.2 Unusual Event-Foreign Object

 Foreign Object: Detect any additional object appearing in the defined area on

the screen.

 Define detection zone: Left click and drag to draw a detection zone. The search

tool will detect additional objects that appear in this zone.

 Define object size: Click and drag to draw and define the size of a foreign object.

 Sensitivity: Modify the sensitivity setting with the slider. Sliding rightwards will

increase the sensitivity level, while sliding leftwards decreases it.

 Interval: Click and move the slider control to the right to increase time interval so

that the alarm will only be triggered when the object has been removed from the area for longer. Move to the left to reduce the time interval.

Note: Setting up an appropriate Interval value will reduce the chance of false alarms. For example, you

can lower the Interval to avoid the alarm being triggered by a pedestrian.
