In this guide, we will show you how to edit the motion detection fields and sensitivity on your recorder.
By default, when you add your cameras to your recorder, the motion detection field will cover the entire screen. However, there are some instances when you might need to adjust this motion detection field. For instance, if there is a window or a busy street in your camera's field of view, you may need to ignore any motion happening on that part of the screen. Check out the guide below for a step-by-step tutorial on how to adjust the motion detection settings on your recorder.
This guide is split up into two parts: editing motion detection settings from the NVR HDMI interface and editing motion detection settings from the CamViewer computer software.
Adjusting Motion Detection from your Recorder's HDMI Interface
Launch your NVR and log into the menu using your device's password
The password is admin789 by default.
In the NVR menu, click "Motion."
This will take you to the main motion detection screen. From here you can adjust the motion detection sensitivity of each channel, between 1 (least sensitive) and 8 (most sensitive).
Click the gear "Setup" icon next to the channel you'd like to edit
This will take you to a screen where you can click and drag in any direction to edit your motion detection field. Any part of the screen with the red overlay will be included in the motion detection.
To edit the motion detection field, simply click on any part of the screen and drag your cursor in any direction
As you drag your cursor, the screen will turn red to show where you're adding the motion detection field. If you drag your cursor over a part of the screen that is already red, it will clear the motion detection field.
Adjusting Motion Detection from your Desktop with the CamViewer Application
Log into your recorder on the Camviewer application
Navigate to "Remote Settings" > "Channel" > "Motion Detection"
This will take you to the screen where you can edit the motion detection field and sensitivity for each of your channels.
To edit the motion detection field, simply click on any part of the screen and drag your cursor.
Note: you must drag your cursor from the bottom-right to the top-left, or from the top-left to the bottom-right.
As you drag your cursor, the screen will turn red to show where you're adding the motion detection field. If you drag your cursor over a part of the screen that is already red, it will clear the motion detection field.
