The Stopped vehicle detection module can be configured using the System settings menu, under the Hardware tab, on the Stopped vehicle detection control panel, using the Camera settings.

The Stopped vehicle detection module is set up as follows:

1. Go to the Stopped vehicle detection control panel.
   
2. Click Settings. The Detection settings window will appear.

3. Configure zones of interest on the Select area tab (1). Several zones can be added (2). Detection tool triggering in each zone produces a separate event.

   For each zone of interest, both vehicle stop and vehicle leaving the zone are detected.

   
   To add a detection zone, do the following:

   1. Click Start video (3) to capture the video image.
   2. To add a zone, click any mouse button on the video image.
   3. Set the required size, shape and position of the detection zone:
      • To change the zone size, use the nodal points of the zone;
      • To rotate the zone, drag it, while holding the mouse pointer close to the inner perimeter of the zone;
      • To move the zone around the frame of the video image, use a dotted line circle (4).

   4. Specify the approximate size of the vehicle by changing the size of the internal areas in the bottom left corner of the main zone (5). This field (5) is called the detection area.

      Each detection zone over its entire area is proportionally covered by detection areas of a given size. It is necessary to set the approximate dimensions of the vehicle so that each detection zone includes no more than 256 detection areas. To control the coverage of the zone by detection areas, use the debug window (see Appendix 1. Debug window). The stopped cars can be detected only in those parts of the observation zone, which are covered by detection areas.

      
      

   5. Enter zone name (6).
   6. Select the direction of the vehicles moving towards the camera for each zone (7).
4. Go to the Parameters tab (1) and set the minimal stop duration in seconds in the Stop duration, s field using the up and down buttons (2).
    
5. Click OK.

Configuring the Stopped vehicle detection module is completed.
