Help with Hikvision event detection: basic vs. smart settings

[mooch91]

HI all,

First Hikvision-variant camera (Annke FCD600) after using Dahua exclusively.

Can you help with event detection settings? I'm looking for only human and vehicle detection inside a defined area in the field of view.

I'm not sure if this is considered "basic" or "smart". "Human" and "vehicle" settings are on both. If on "basic" - how to get the camera to send only humans and vehicles and not all motion?

Thanks in advance.

Basic settings:



Smart settings:

Hi all,
Resurrecting this as I didn't get an answer previously - do I use BASIC or SMART events to get only human and vehicle detection within a specific area? I'm still setting up my first Hik-variant camera.
Thanks!

If you don't check anything (under basic) you will get all motion events... if you do check human or vehicle (or both) that is all you will get.

It's definitely more accurate to use smart intrusion detection that basic motion detection... you have the additional parameters min size, max size, threshold, and target validity... use them to tune the detection and help filter false alerts while not missing actual events.

This doesn't seem to be the case for me. If I enable Basic and check both human and vehicle, I get almost continuous motion - it seems to be picking up every flicker, every bug, every snowflake...

If I do the same with Smart, it seems to improve, but I'm also not sure how Smart intrusion works. On the Dahua, there were options to trigger when something moved in to the intrusion area, out of the area, both in and out, or appeared in the area. There are no such options on the Hikvision camera. Since some of my camera placements are less than ideal, it's not easy to set an area where a boundary needs to be crossed to trigger.

I could be wrong... I never use basic motion detection... what's the point of selecting human or vehicle if it's going to pick everything up? Anyway, I would'nt use basic motion detection...

The smart intrusion detection works VERY reliably for me... whatever I set on a camera (human/vehicle) is what I get!

On the Dahua, there were options to trigger when something moved in to the intrusion area, out of the area, both in and out, or appeared in the area. There are no such options on the Hikvision camera.

something moved in to the intrusion area = region entrance detection

out of the area = region exit detection

both in and out = configure both region exit detection AND region entrance detection

appeared in the area = intrusion detection

Since some of my camera placements are less than ideal, it's not easy to set an area where a boundary needs to be crossed to trigger.

Same here, not ideal
