1. Select the created detection tool.

2. To record Water Level Detection readings to archive, set Yes for the  Record Mask to Archive parameter (1).
   

3. If the camera supports multistreaming, select the stream to be used for detection. Select a low-quality video stream to reduce Server load (2).
4. Select a processing resource for decoding video streams (3). When you select a GPU, a stand-alone graphics card takes priority (when decoding with NVidia NVDEC chips). If there's no appropriate GPU, the decoding will use the Intel Quick Sync Video technology. Otherwise, CPU resources will be used for decoding.

5. Analyzed framed are scaled down to a specified resolution (4, 1280 pixels on the longer side). This is how it works:

   1. If the longer side of the source image exceeds the value specified in the Frame size change field, it is divided by two.

   2. If the resulting resolution falls below the specified value, it is used further.

   3. If the resulting resolution still exceeds the specified limit, it is divided by two, etc.

      Info
      title Note
      For example, the source image resolution is 2048 * 1536, and the limit is set to 1000. In this case, the source resolution will be divided two times (down to 512 * 384): after the first division, the number of pixels on the longer side exceeds the limit (1024 > 1000).

      
      

6. Choose a processor to run detection on (5). Non-neural detection may be run on the CPU only. 

7. Use the neural network if the tool fails to detect water level due to transparency of water. Please follow the steps below:

   1. Select Yes for the Neural Network parameter (6).

   2. Select the neural network file (7).

8. On the measurement scale (8, 9), set the upper and lower visible limits in normal conditions.
9. Move the anchor points  in FoV:7

   1. to set the measurement scale;
      

      Note
      title Attention!
      Upper and lower limits of the measurement scale must match the actual settings (see paragraph 4).

      
      

      Info
      title Note
      Water level sensor is shown In the lower left corner. If the sensor is blue, the water level is below High and Critical.  If the sensor is yellow, the water level is High.  A red icon means a level above Critical.

      
      

   2. draw a line to set the upper limit for water level upon reaching which the detection tool triggers an alarm
   3. draw a line to set the upper limit for water level upon reaching which the detection tool highlights the sensor icon in the Camera Window with yellow color.
10. Click the Apply button.
