I don't work with a NVR, My records are stored on a NAS so I can't help you with NVR questions.
If you can live view your camera's in IVMS on a computer you can get in the camera settings with right mouse click on the live view screen and click remote config or something in that order... There you have to "enable dynamic analisys for motion" and "double VCA, then you can config in the IVMS program settings (not the remote config screen) "highlight motion area".
If you have done this the motion is visible in IVMS with live view and playback, I don't know if this also works for your NVR, but if it's only for programming it should not be a problem to work with IVMS.
