Night alarm motion sensitivity

[eshelon_5747454049]

Hi,
Its look like my camera very sensitive to night vision and alarm motion is always on during the night even if the sensitivity set to 1
is there any setting/option i can decrease sensitivity at night mode ?
Here my motion sensitivity setting

Hi,

In night vision, we suggest to set the motion detection sensitivity to be low, higher value(50 for example).
It is because of the noise in night vision which might trigger alarm by mistake.

1. level 1: It will trigger motion when there is 0.5% of the video area with motion object.
2. level 50: It will trigger motion when there is 10% of the video area with motion object.

I'm getting a lot of recording going on even at 50 during the night on my camera. The only "motion" I can see in the videos, for the most part, is shifting light levels from one frame to the next... which I don't think is really changes in the visible light out there, as it really does appear to abruptly shift from one frame to the next.

What would be useful is if there was also an ability to set a threshold level for how many frames in a row the motion is detected over.... I believe that is what some of the more sophisticated motion detection algorithms do.

Regards,
Eric

Oh, and you might want to add the info regarding the sensitivity level to the FAQ, it would help a lot, in particular
"1. level 1: It will trigger motion when there is 0.5% of the video area with motion object.
2. level 50: It will trigger motion when there is 10% of the video area with motion object."

Currently the FAQ suggests a setting in the range of 10 - 40 for daytime, but 1-20 for nighttime... quite the opposite of what you are suggesting here.
