The

function

setting depends on the type of the selected detector:

Motion detection tool

The value of this parameter corresponds to the minimum value of the averaged brightness of the moving object, at which the detection tool will trigger only

act

at its motion, and not at the video signal noise (including snow, rain, etc.). The HIGHER the sensitivity value, the more sensitive the detection tool is.

Focus detection tool
The value of this parameter characterizes the minimum degree of accuracy loss, expressed in the difference between the average number of outlines and the number of outlines in the incoming frame at which the detection tool should trigger.

Video signal stability

Stability detection tool

The value of this parameter characterizes the minimum degree of reduction in the resolution of the frame, expressed in the difference between the average number of outlines and the number of outlines in the incoming frame at which the detection tool should trigger.

Background change detection tool

This parameter characterizes the deviation of the integral brightness of the frame from the average value at which the detection tool should trigger.

Camera blinding

Blind detection tool

This parameter corresponds to the rate of illumination of the video expressed in the difference between the positions of medians of the brightness chart of the incoming frame and the reference illumination frame at which the detection tool should trigger.

Cover detection tool

This parameter corresponds to the rate of narrowing of the brightness chart of the frame, i.e. estimation of the frame filling with gray color, at which the detection tool should trigger.

Infrared detection tool

The value of this parameter corresponds to the minimum value of the averaged brightness of the moving object, at which the detection tool will trigger at its motion

The value of this parameter corresponds to the threshold of color processing of objects, at which the detection tool should trigger. The HIGHER the filtering, the more different the neighboring elements (pixels) of the image should be, so that the detection tool considers them as different objects.
