Whether you’re waiting
for an expected event,
hoping you don’t spot
an unwelcome visitor,
or just curious about
what happens when
you’re not around, Mo-
tion Detection can be
configured to alert you
and record video only
when it detects mo-
tion. Motion Detection
is enabled by default.


Back to top 15
Motion Detection
Motion Detection is an essential part of your security system. It’s the
main method that detects when someone is in your home when they
shouldn’t be. When motion has been detected by one or more cameras,
a signal is sent to your DVR, alerting you to a potential threat in your
home. It does this in several ways such as activating an audio warning
using its internal buzzer, sending an email and sending an alert to your
smartphone or tablet. You can also configure your DVR so it triggers the
other cameras to start recording.
Motion Detection is the default recording mode for your DVR. The entire
view of the camera is enabled to detect motion, however you can select
certain areas if you wish. In the above example, a Motion Detection zone
has been set up for the windows and dining room entrance. Movement
outside of these zones will not be detected.
1. Right-click the mouse to access the sub-menu then click “Delete All”.
2. Click & drag to select the area that you want to create a zone for. Mul-
tiple zones can be created. The same action also applies if you want to
delete a zone that has been created.
3. You can adjust the sensitivity level (see above) if required.
4. Right-click the mouse to access the sub-menu then click “Save” to
save any changes that you have made. To revert back to default settings
click “Add to All” or click “Cancel” to exit.
• Click the “Default” button to revert back to default settings.
• Use the “Copy to” button to apply all settings to the other cameras.
• Don’t forget to click “Apply” to save settings.
• Right-click the mouse to exit the Menu.
Using the “Sensitivity” function, you can
change the motion sensitivity level for each
time period available. The level is controlled
by a slider, allowing you to set a value be-
tween 0 and 50. The lower the number, the
more sensitive the Motion Detection will be.

Motion Detection Schedule
In the above example, a schedule has been created for 06:00 a.m. to
06:00 p.m. Sunday to Saturday. Using the mouse, click on a particular
square or click & drag to change a section.
• Click the “Default” button to revert back to default settings.
• Don’t forget to click “Apply” to save settings.
• Click “Cancel” to exit.
• Right-click the mouse to exit the Menu.
By default, a Motion De-
tection alarm schedule
has been enabled for
each connected cam-
era. You can however
change the schedule
according to what fits
in with your needs. The
schedule is presented
as a 24 hour 7 days a
week grid and is colour
coded to represent the
event type.

Motion Detection Tips
Placement of the cameras
1. Keep cameras 10 - 15 feet (3 - 4 metres) away from heating vents, where the sunlight shines in, and
radiators. If a camera detects a swift change in motion, even that of a cloud passing quickly over direct
sunlight shining into your living room, Motion Detection could be activated.
2. Place cameras in areas where people have to walk through, like the stairwell, main hallway or entry
door. That way, an intruder will activate Motion Detection regardless of where they are headed. Intruders
usually go right for the master bedroom, so put a camera near that room or other rooms where you have
valuables, like the study.
3. Walk through your house and assess where intruders are most likely to enter, and what path they would
take. Most burglars enter the home through a front or back door, so it’s advisable to place the cameras
near those areas.
4. When installing cameras outside, it’s important to keep your front and backyard well-lit for ideal night
vision and the ability to detect motion. It’s common for intruders to enter a home through an unlocked
garage or by using a garage door opener in an unlocked car located in the driveway.
Avoiding false triggers
1. A flag or foliage that is blown by the wind - Angle the camera so wind-blown objects are out of the
camera’s view.
2. Pets moving in front of the camera - Lower the sensitivity level and/or point the camera into areas that
are not particular high-traffic for your pets.
3. Vehicles moving in the background - Angle the camera so as to avoid movement in the background.
4. Moving air from a heater or air conditioner - Angle the camera away from heater and air conditioner
sources.
5. Movement reflected off smooth surfaces such as glass - Lower the sensitivity level and/or avoid pointing
the camera directly at glass surfaces.

7 days a week grid and
is colour coded to rep-
resent the event type.

Network: General
Network Access: You can select between three different network types
that your DVR can be connected to. The three types are:
DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol): This is a system where
your router will automatically assign an IP address to each device con-
nected to your network.
Static: This requires that all devices on your network have their IP ad-
dress manually defined.
PPPoE: An advanced protocol that allows your DVR to be directly con-
nected to a DSL modem.
IP Address: Each device on your network must have a unique IP address
to identify itself. A typical address might be “192.168.1.24” or something
similar.
Subnet Mask: This allows the flow of network traffic between hosts to be
segregated based on a network configuration. A typical address might
be “255.255.255.0” or something similar.
Default Gateway: This allows your DVR to connect to the Internet. This
is typically the same IP address as your modem or router.
Auto DNS/Static DNS: Select how would like to define your DNS servers.
It’s recommended to leave this on Auto DNS.
• Click the “Default” button to revert back to default settings.

As SwannLink Peer-
to-Peer technology is
utilised to communi-
cate with your network
and mobile device,
configuration of the
network settings is not
required. If you have
networking expertise
and require specific
settings for your net-
work, your DVR does
have the ability to
change them.

Glossary
3D-Noise Filter - Is an enhanced form of digital noise reduction. The
advancement in technology enables noise to be filtered even more ef-
fectively from the image, even in low light conditions.
50Hz - Is the mains frequency used in the UK, Australia and most Euro-
pean countries.
60Hz - Is the mains frequency used in the United States, Canada and
some Latin American countries.
AGC (Automatic Gain Control) - In low light conditions, the camera will
automatically boost the gain control so that people and objects can be
seen more clearly. The advantage of this technique is that your camera
will produce images in much lower light conditions. The downside is
that the amplification will increase the video noise visible.
Anti-flicker - As Fluorescent lighting operates at the same frequen-
cy as your mains power, this will cause luminance flicker when viewed
through the camera. Enabling the anti-flicker options available can re-
duce or eliminate the flicker that is visible.
Anti-smearing - A smear effect means that a bright vertical line orig-
inating from a bright light source appears in the image. This happens
especially with back lighting. Enabling this allows people and objects to
be seen correctly against a very bright background.
Auto DNS (Domain Name System) - A service that stores domain names
and translates them into Internet protocol addresses. For example,
www.google.com will have a DNS server address that is equivalent to
74.125.224.72. For this option, the DNS server is automatically provided
by your Internet service provider.
Auto-focus - Will adjust the lens of your camera to focus on an object
being viewed.
Bitrate - The amount of data that your DVR will use to record video or
stream to the app. The higher the bitrate, the more space each record-
ing will consume on the hard drive. Increasing this will also consume
more bandwidth when streaming to apps and software.
BLC (Back Light Compensation) - Improves exposure of an object that
is in front of a light source. It does this by splitting the whole image into
different regions, and then applying separate exposure levels to those
regions.
Brightness - This changes how light the image appears to be. Its value
is different in darkness to that in daylight. For example, the lights from
car headlights appears to be brighter at night.
CDS - This allows the image to be set by the camera’s light sensor. A
CDS sensor is basically a resistor that changes its resistive value (in
ohms) depending on how much light is shining onto the sensor.
Contrast - This increases the difference between the blackest black and
the whitest white in the image. Without contrast you wouldn’t have an
image because there wouldn’t be any differentiation between light and
dark.
DDNS (Dynamic DNS) - Is a service that converts IP addresses into host
names (using a host name is a lot easier than trying to remember an IP
address). This makes DDNS a good fit for home networks, which nor-
mally receives an IP address from the ISP that will change occasionally.
DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol) - Uses an appropriate
server or router to enable dynamic assignment of an IP address to a
device connected to the network.
Display Resolution - Is the number of pixels supported by your HDTV or
VGA monitor. 1920 x 1080 resolution will give you the best display quality.
