Figure 68 Tampering Detection Configurations
Tampering detection: Check to enable tampering detection.
Image too dark detection: Check to enable image too dark detection. Too dark can be a
cover on the camera or a spraying paint on the camera.
Image too bright detection: Check to enable image too bright detection. Too bright can
be a flashlight shining to the camera.
Image too blurry detection: Check to enable image too blurry detection. To blurry can
be the result of strong interference on the camera, such as EMI interference.
Trigger duration: It specifies a set of time before the tampering is considered as a real
alarm. This helps avoid false alarms by short-lived changes.
Trigger threshold: It determines how sensitive the tamper detection setting is. The lower
the threshold value, the easier the detection is triggered.
You can configure Tampering Detection as a trigger element to the proactive event
configurations in Video Analytics Event settings Trigger. For example, when the
camera is tampered with, camera can be configured to send the pre- and post-event
video clips to a networked storage device. For more information, see
Configuring Audio Detection
Go to Setup Video Analytics Audio Detection.
Note:
HC30WF5R1/ HC30W25R3/HC30W25R3-12V cameras support this function.
Audio detection, along with video motion detection, is applicable in the following
scenarios:
•
Detection of activities not covered by camera view, e.g., a loud input by gun shots or
breaking a door/ window.
•
A usually noisy environment, such as a factory, suddenly becomes quiet due to a
breakdown of machines.
•
Dark environments where video motion detection may not function well.
