What are the configuration options for motion detection?

Understand what each section of the motion detection wizard does.

Updated over a year ago

When you are configuring motion detection for a camera configured for one of your devices you will be walked through a three-step wizard.

Those three steps are:

  1. What do you want to detect?
    This step will allow you to choose what you wish to detect, depending on the capability of the device.

  2. Where do you wish to detect?
    To save unnecessary notifications and bandwidth, you can specify which areas of the camera field of view will generate notifications. Any number of distinct areas can be chosen. You click and drag to choose areas.

  3. Add a custom message to your notification
    When notifications are received by users, they will get a summary of what has generated it, any media associated with it (i.e. recordings), and (if specified) a custom message. This field is entirely optional, but it allows you to include any relevant content, including workflow instructions if required.
