Recording settings for clear identification for each image
To have the best video quality, you should set
Fix quality
to
detailed
or
excellent
and tune the
Maximum frame rate
to suit
your network bandwidth. If you get
some broken pictures in a slow network, you can choose
TCP protocol
in
Connection type
for more accurate transmission but the received image may
have lags. Note that any slow connection with multiple users will impair
performance.
Recommendations for setting video for the best
performance (continued):
Recording settings to compromise between real-time and clear
images
If you have a broadband network, set
Fix quality
to
Good,
or better, rather than
setting the
Bit rate
. Otherwise fix the bandwidth to accommodate your actual
network speed and set the frame rate to 30. If the images quality is low, select
the lower frame rate above 15. If the image is still not improved, select a lower
bit rate.

A green bar means the image variation is under the monitoring level, and no
motion detection alert is triggered. A red bar means the image variation is over
the monitoring level and a motion detected alert is triggered. When the bar
goes red, the window that the motion is detected in will also be outlined in red
(note: remember that you can have up to 3 windows selected for motion
detection). You can return to the
DCS-2000
Home Page and the monitored
window will not be visible, but the red frame will show on the home page when
motion is detected.

Check this option to turn on the motion detection.
Window Name
-
The text entered here will show at the top of the
motion window.
Sensitivity -
Sets the measurable difference between two
sequential images that would indicate motion.
Percentage -
Sets the amount of motion in the window being
monitored that is required to initiate a motion
detected alert. If this is set to 100%, motion is
detected within the whole window to trigger a
snapshot.
Setting a higher
sensitivity
and a lower
percentage
will make any motion more easily
detected.
To display motion detection, a graphic bar will rise or fall depending on the
image variation.
