Milestone XProtect ® Express 1.1Administrator's ManualNameSensitivityMotionKeyframe OnlyDetection intervalDetection resolutionDescriptionDetermines how much each pixel must change before it is regarded asmotion. With a high sensitivity, very little change in a pixel is requiredbefore it is regarded as motion. Areas in which motion is detected arehighlighted in green in the preview image. Select a slider position in whichonly detections you consider motion are highlighted. The more you drag theslider to the left, the more of the preview image becomes highlighted. Thisis because with a high sensitivity even the slightest change in a pixel will beregarded as motion. As an alternative to using the slider, you may specify avalue between 0 and 256 in the field next to the slider to control thesensitivity setting.Adjust the Motion slider so that motion detection is only triggered by therequired level of motion. The selected motion level is indicated by the blackvertical line in the Level bar above the sliders. The black vertical lineserves as a threshold. When motion is above (to the right of) the selectedlevel, the bar changes color from green to red, indicating a positive motiondetection.Alternatively, specify a value between 0 and 10000 in the field on the left tocontrol the motion setting.The more you drag the slider to the left, the more positive motiondetections you see because less change will be needed to trigger a positivemotion detection. The number of positive motion detections may also affectthe amount of video you record, the amount of notifications you receive,etc.If you want motion detection to take place only on keyframes of the videostream to reduce the system resources used on motion detection, selectKeyframe only.Specify how often motion detection analysis is carried out on video from thecamera. The default is every 240 milliseconds (close to once a quarter of asecond). The interval is applied regardless of your cameras' frame ratesettings.Adjusting this setting can help lower the amount of system resources usedon motion detection.Specify whether the full image or a selected percentage of the imageshould be analyzed. For example, by specifying 25%, every fourth pixel isanalyzed instead of all pixels, reducing the system resources used but alsooffering less accurate motion detection.Privacy maskingAsk yourself whether there are any areas of the camera image that must be masked from viewing. For example, ifthe camera points in a way so that it catches the window of a private building, the privacy of the residents must berespected. In that case, you can mask areas of the image by configuring the settings below.NameEnableDescriptionEnable the Privacy Masking feature.www.milestonesys.com 102 Advanced configuration
Milestone XProtect ® Express 1.1Administrator's ManualNameShow gridShow privacy maskClearDescriptionToggle the grid on and off. Toggling the grid off may provide a lessobscured view of the preview image; selection of areas which should beexcluded from privacy masking takes place the same way as when the gridis visible. When on, the preview image will be divided into small sections bya grid. To define areas which should be excluded from privacy masking,drag the mouse over the areas in the preview image while pressing themouse button down. Left mouse button selects a grid section; right mousebutton clears a grid section. Selected areas are highlighted in red.Toggle the red area indicating privacy masking on and off. Toggling the redarea off may provide a less obscured view of the preview image.Clear the privacy masking.360° lens360° lens technology allows you to view 360° panoramic video through an advanced lens. If a camera is going touse 360° lens technology, you must enable the technology and, in some cases, enter a special license key.NameDescriptionEnable 360° lensEnable panomorph supportImmervision Enables®panomorph RPL numberEnable fisheye supportLicense keySelect check box to enable use of the 360° lens technology and to be ableto specify further properties.Select to enable panomorph support. Panomorph is an advancedtechnology can provide high resolution in zones of interest, while at thesame time using fewer pixels than conventional fisheye solutions. In thelist, also select whether the camera is located in the ceiling, on a wall or onground level.When enabling the panomorph support functionality, you must also select aRegistered Panomorph Lens (RPL) number from the ImmerVisionEnables ® panomorph RPL number list. This is to ensure identification andcorrect configuration of the lens used with the camera in question. The RPLnumber is usually found on the lens itself or on the box it came in.If you, at some point, want to add additional types of lenses, go to File andselect Import new lens types. Locate the .xml file that containsinformation about the lens type and press OK.For details of ImmerVison, panomorph lenses, and RPLs, seehttp://www.immervision.com/en/home/index.php.Select to enable fisheye support. Fisheye technology uses a wide-anglelens to capture a hemispherical image, which can then be de-warpedthrough configured fisheye settings (see "Fisheye" on page 104) for thecamera in question.If required, enter your special fisheye license key and click OK, after whichit will be possible to configure fisheye settings for camera(s) attached to thehardware device.Do I need the special fisheye license key, and where do I get it?
