Enabling simple motion detection:

  1. Launch Pelco Utilities.
  2. Select the Optera Camera.
  3. Right click > Device Actions > Enable/ disable motion service.
  4. Select Enable > Click OK.

 

Configuring motion settings:

  1. Click the devices tab.
  2. Expand the camera tree to select the first stream.
  3. Click on the Motion tab.
  4. Select "Zone Active".
  5. Draw in the motion region.
  6. Adjust the Sensitivity(%) and Threshold(%).

If the camera has already been added to a motion schedule do the following:

If the camera has not been added to a motion schedule you can create one now and add this camera.
