The detection tool will trigger if an object stops and remains idle for a specified time period.

To set a specified time period, you must perform the following steps:

1. In the Detection Tools list, highlight a Stop in area object (1).
   

2. Set the idle period duration for triggering the tool (2). This value should fall into the range of [0, 3600].

   Set this parameter to a value lower than the Time of object in DB in Object tracker settings (see Setting general parameters of Tracker-based Scene Analytics detection tools).

   
   

   If a detection tools runs on VMD metadata, the Stop in area duration should be set to 0. Otherwise, the detection tools will not work.

   
   

3. Click the Apply button.
