Specify the number of sensor fields that a moving object must 

cover to generate an alarm. This setting prevents objects that 

are too small from triggering an alarm. A minimum value of 4 is 

recommended. This value corresponds to four sensor fields.

The debounce time prevents very brief alarm events from 

triggering individual alarms. If the Debounce time 1 s option is 

activated, an alarm event must last at least 1 second to trigger 

an alarm.

Select the areas of the image to be monitored by the motion 

detector. The video image is subdivided into square sensor 

fields. Activate or deactivate each of these fields individually. To 

exclude particular regions of the camera's field of view from 

monitoring due to continuous movement (by a tree in the wind, 

for example), the relevant fields can be deactivated.
