normal occurrences, such as changing illumination across the period of a day and will reduce the number of false
alarms. This value will be the same for all target areas on one given camera.

To Set up Intelli-Zone target areas, do the following:
1. Draw a target zone on the selected camera (up to 10 zones can be defined per camera):
a. Place the cursor over the start point on the live view screen
b. Hold the left mouse button down and drag to create a rectangular area
c. Let the mouse button go
d. Move/adjust the area if necessary
e. To delete target zone, click a target zone to select it, hold the left mouse button down and drag the target zone
off from the live view window.
f. To erase created areas, click Reset All Areas
2. Select the specific target area by clicking on it in the live view window.
3. Enter the Area Name for the created target zone in the Detection Zone menu.
4. Check the Display Area Name checkbox to display the Area Name on the main screen each time the motion
is detected in that area.
5. Select the Go to Preset position. The camera will move to this position when motion is detected.
6. Set the Block Count number by clicking up and down with the arrows. The Block Count number determines
the detection sensitivity of the target zone. One block is 10-pixels high and 10-pixels wide. The higher the block count
number, the more significant a change must be in an image to set off the alarm. The Percent of Change number
cannot be manually changed and depends directly on the block count number. Percent of Change expresses the Block
Count as a percentage, as opposed to blocks.

Count as a percentage, as opposed to blocks.
7. Enter the Dwell Time. This defines the delay time before the camera returns to the Start Position.
8. Assign the Control Output that will be triggered by the motion detected in the target area. The control has
to be available and activated in the Hardware Setup.
To associate a target area with another camera, do the following:
1. In Associated with Camera menu, choose the associated camera in the Camera field. This camera will
assume the selected preset when motion is detected in the specific target area.
2. In Associated with Camera menu, in the Preset Number field, choose the Preset position that the associated
camera will go to once motion is detected in the target area.
In the example above,
If a change of at least 5 blocks (5% of the total target area) occurs in the target area labeled “Door”, Camera 1 will go
to Preset 02, Control 2 will be activated, and the camera labeled Front Door will move to Preset 01. After 40 seconds,
the camera will return to the Preset 01.
