    Changing a [Rectangular] detection area into a [Polygonal] 
    shape or changing a [Polygonal] detection area into a 
    [Rectangular] shape
    Changing the shape of the detection areas already set 
    deletes that area and switches to a new drawing setting.
    „Setting the Detection Line
    Use the video display area to set the detection line. 
    Specify a detection line consisting of a polygonal line with 
    a maximum of 32 angles.
    In the video display area, click the start point of the 
    detection line and then click the end point. To create a 
    detection line consisting of polygonal line, click each 
    angle in the polygonal line in order.
    To confirm a detection line, click any of the already set 
    angles.
    The angles in a confirmed detection line can be dragged 
    to change the shape of a detection line and lines between 
    angles can be dragged to change the position of the 
    detection line.
    Note
     Drag the square marks (■) at each angle to change the shape 
    of the detection line.
     Click [Clear detection line] to delete a detection line.
    „Setting Detection Criteria per Detection Type
    Specify different detection criteria for each detection type.
    Detect criteria for [Moving Object Detection]
    Set detection areas where you want to detect moving 
    objects.
    For [Object Size (%)], enter a value or move the slider to 
    set the ratio of the size of an object moving in the 
    detection area to the size of the detection area.
    When the ratio of an area where the camera has detected 
    a moving object exceeds the value set for [Object Size 
    (%)], detected mode is triggered to ON.
    When [Object Size (%)] is changed, an indicator frame 
    showing the size of the object is displayed for 1 second in 
    the center of the video display area, allowing specification 
    of the settings while checking the size ratio.
    Any moving objects detected are shown with contour lines.
    If a moving object is smaller than [Object Size (%)], its 
    contour lines are white. If the moving object is larger than 
    [Object Size (%)], its contour lines take on the same color 
    as the detection area, indicating that “detection” mode has 
    been triggered to ON.
    Note
    If an object is placed in or removed from the moving object 
    detection area, “detected” mode will be triggered for Moving 
    Object Detection.
    Detect criteria for [Abandoned Object Detection]
    Set areas where you want to detect abandoned objects as 
    detection areas.
    5Click [Restart intelligent function] again.

    [Object Size (%)]
    Enter a value or move the slider to set the ratio of the size 
    of an object that was left behind in the detection area to 
    the size of the detection area.
    When [Object Size (%)] is changed, an indicator frame 
    representing the area of the object is displayed for 1 
    second in the center of the video display area. This allows 
    you to check the size ratio of the abandoned object 
    detection area while specifying the [Object Size (%)] 
    setting.
    [Duration (Sec)] 
    Set the time that must elapse after an object has been left.
    If both the values for [Object Size (%)] and [Duration 
    (Sec)] are exceeded, detection mode is triggered to ON.
    Any moving objects detected are shown with contour lines.
    If [Object Size (%)] and [Duration (Sec)] are not exceeded, 
    contour lines are white. When all detection criteria are met, 
    contour lines take on the same color as the detection area 
    and “detected” mode is triggered to ON.
    Detect criteria for [Removed Object Detection]
    Set detection areas for objects whose removal you want to 
    detect. If there are multiple objects for which you want to 
    enable detection, be sure to configure Removed Object 
    Detection for each object.
    For [Duration (Sec)], set the time that must elapse after 
    the object has been taken away. Detected mode will be 
    triggered to ON when an object is taken away from the 
    detection area for a period longer than the set [Duration 
    (Sec)].Any moving objects detected are shown with contour 
    lines. As long as [Duration (Sec)] has not elapsed, 
    contour lines are white. When [Duration (Sec)] has 
    elapsed, contour lines take on the same color as the 
    detection area, indicating that “detected” mode has been 
    triggered to ON.
    Detect criteria for [Camera Tampering Detection]
    For [Camera Tampering Detection], the entire video 
    display area becomes the detection area. Detected mode 
    will be triggered to ON when the video changes over an 
    area exceeding the ratio set in [Change Ratio (%)].
    When [Change Ratio (%)] is changed, an indicator frame 
    representing the percentage of the entire video display 
    area is displayed for 1 second in the center of the area, 
    allowing you to check while specifying the setting.

    Important
    Set detection areas for removed object detection so that they 
    precisely match the contours of the object in question. 
    Influence from the target object’s shadow or adjacent objects 
    may result in the target object being recognized as larger than 
    actual and will not trigger Removed Object Detection. In such 
    cases, reconfigure the detection area to outline the recognized 
    target object. Alternatively, use [Quick setting] (p. 110).

    Any moving objects detected are shown with contour 
    lines. If it is smaller than [Change Ratio (%)], contour lines 
    are white. If the video is changed for an area larger than 
    [Change Ratio (%)], contour lines take on the same color 
    as the detection area, indicating that “detected” mode 
    has been triggered to ON.
    Note
    Detection will not be possible for three seconds after the change 
    ratio is modified when camera tampering detection is selected, or 
    when switching into camera tampering detection from another 
    detection mode.
    Detect criteria for [Passing Detection]
    Set the passing direction and decision point of the moving 
    object for the detection line that the moving object will 
    cross.
    [Passing Direction]
    Select the direction for moving objects to pass the 
    detection line. When an object that moves in the selected 
    direction passes the detection line, “line crossed” is 
    detected.
    A preview display shows the selected passing direction 
    on the detection line in the video display area.
    [Decision Point]
    Select the decision point of a moving object in 
    accordance with a detection line. When a decision point 
    selected here crosses the detection line, “line crossed” is 
    detected. In the video display area, a cross mark is 
    displayed to indicate the decision point in the detection 
    frame.[Object Size (%)]
    Enter or use the slider to set the size ratio of moving 
    objects for the entire screen.
    When a moving object exceeds the value set for [Object 
    Size (%)], it becomes a passing detection target.
    When [Object Size (%)] is changed, an indicator frame 
    showing the size of the object is displayed for 1 second in 
    the center of the video display area, allowing specification 
    of the settings while checking the size ratio.
    Note
     A ratio of up to 30% can be set for [Object Size (%)] in passing 
    detection.
     A passing detection event is notified only when the decision 
    line is crossed. Take care in setting the operation to be 
    performed when an event occurs.
