Using motion detection analytics
You can search through recordings for changes (motion detections) in a defined area of the video during certain periods of time. This allows you to find specific events after the initial live viewing. Once completed, you can view the search results in a graph format.
To run analytics tasks
- Go to Analytics > Motion > Task.
- Click New.
- Select a camera from the drop-down menu.
- Select the type of motion you are attempting to detect from the Type drop-down menu. Motion detection analyzes the video for changes in position of an object relative to its surroundings, while motion heatmap reviews the recordings of a camera and overlays motion areas into a heatmap, which can help determine areas with more traffic.
- Specify the time frame.

Time required varies, but could be a few minutes. After the task is completed, double-click the task to view the results. You can adjust the sensitivity and threshold of the search result.
