This camera offers the bui lt-in motion sensor function th at aut omatically detects motion in the subject.
The motion sensor detects an alarm condition in two ways as follows.

A Detecting motion in specific areas

B Detecting motion with lines and areas drawn on the screen

You cannot configure the motion sensor function if the electronic sensitivity boosting (SENSE UP) or
the long exposure shutter mo de (LONG) is enabled.

When the automatic pursuit function is set on the PAN/TILT screen, you ca nnot configure the motion
sensor.
If you configure the automatic pursuit function after enabling the motion sensor, the mo tion sensor
will be forcibly disabled.

Use the motion detectio n function to detect motion in specif ic area s of the subject.
