To configure the Fire Detectiondetector, do the following:

  1. Go to the Detection Tools tab.
  2. Below the required camera, click Create…  Category: Production Safety → Fire Detection detector.

By default, the

...

detector is enabled and set to detect fire.

If necessary, you can change the

...

detector parameters. The list of parameters is given in the table:

Decoder modeAutoSelect a processing resource for decoding video streams. When you select a GPU, a stand-alone graphics card takes priority (when decoding with NVIDIA NVDEC chips). If there is no appropriate GPU, the decoding will use the Intel Quick Sync Video technology. Otherwise, CPU resources will be used for decoding

Neural network file

Select a neural network file. The standard neural networks for different processor types are located in the C:\Program Files\Common Files\AxxonSoft\DetectorPack\NeuroSDK directory. You don't need to select the standard neural networks in this field, the system will automatically select the required one. If you use a custom neural network, enter a path to the file.

titleNote

For the correct neural network operation on Linux OS, place the corresponding file in the /opt/AxxonSoft/DetectorPack/NeuroSDK directory. 

Note
titleAttention!

If you use standard neural network (training wasn't performed in operating conditions), we guarantee the overall accuracy of 80-95% and the percentage of false positives of 5-20%.

Ignore black and white imageYesThe parameter is disabled by default. If you don't want the
detection tool to trigger
detector to generate an event when the image is black and white, select the Yes value
No
Number of measurements in a row to trigger detection5

Specify the minimum number of frames with fire for the

detection tool to trigger

detector to generate an event. The value must be in the range [5; 20]

Scanning modeYesThe parameter is
enabled
disabled by default. You can use the scanning mode (see 
Scanning mode in Axxon One
Configuring the scanning mode) to detect small objects or objects in areas far away from the camera. For this, select the Yes value. This mode doesn’t provide absolute detection accuracy, but can improve detection performance
No

Sensitivity 33

Specify the sensitivity of the

detection tool

detector empirically. The value must be in the range [1; 99]. The default value is 33. The preview window displays the sensitivity scale of the

detection tool

detector that relates to the sensitivity parameter. If the scale is green, fire isn't detected. If the scale is yellow, fire is detected, but not enough to

trigger the tool

generate an event. If the scale is red, fire is detected, and the

detection tool will trigger

detector generates an event, if the scale is red through the sampling period (50 seconds by default).


Example. The sensitivity parameter value of 40 means that the

detection tool will trigger

detector will generate an event when the scale has at least four divisions full over the entire detection period.

The triggering

An event will

stop

end when the scale has less than two divisions full over the detection period. The

detection tool will trigger

detector will generate an event again if the scale has at least four divisions full over the entire detection period

By default, the entire frame is the detection area. In the preview window, you can specify the detection areas using the anchor points (see Configuring a detection area):

  1. Right-click in the preview window.
  2. If you want to specify the detection area by one or more rectangles, select Detection area (rectangle). If you specify a rectangular area, the detection tool detector will analyze only this area. The rest of the frame will be ignored.
  3. If you want to specify the detection area by one or more polygons, select Detection area (polygon). If you specify one or several polygonal areas, the detection tool detector will analyze the entire frame. The part of the frame not included in the specified polygons will be blacked out.

    Note
    titleAttention!

    You can specify the detection areas similarly to the excluded areas of the Scene analytics detection tools (see Configuring the Detection Zone). You must select the detection area (polygon or rectangle) experimentally. For some neural networks the quality of detection will be better with rectangle, for otherswith polygon.

  • For convenience of configuration, you can "freeze" the frame. Click the Image Modified button. To cancel the action, click this button again.
  • To hide detection area, click the Image Modified button. To cancel the action, click this button again.
  • To delete the selected area, click the Image Modified button.

To save the parameters of the detection tooldetector, click the Apply  button. To cancel the changes, click the Cancel  button.
