refer to the actual interface.
It includes the following options:
 Auto: It can auto adjust the image brightness according to
the environment.
 Gain priority: The device can auto adjust according to the
gain range which is set by priority during normal exposure
range according to the different scene brightness. The device
will auto adjust shutter value if the image brightness fails to
reach the effect and the gain value has reached to upper limit
Mode or lower limit, which is to make the image reach the best
brightness.
 Shutter priority: The device can auto adjust according to the
shutter range which is set by priority during normal exposure
range according to the different scene brightness. The device
will auto adjust shutter value if the image brightness fails to
reach the effect and the shutter value has reached to upper
limit or lower limit, which is to make the image reach the best
brightness.
 Iris priority: Iris value is fixed, the device can auto adjust the
shutter value if the image brightness fails to reach effect and
the shutter value has reached the upper limit or lower limit,
the device can auto adjust the gain value to make the image
reach the best brightness.

It will trigger alarm when the target crosses the warning line according to the movement direction which
has been set.
It needs some time from when the target appears to when the target is confirmed, so it has to leave
some space on both sides of the warning line when setting the warning line, please do not set the
warning line near the obstructions.

 As for the report interval of the AVA function in the area, the system will trigger an alarm if it
detects same event happened during the interval; the alarm counter will become zero if there is no
same event happened in the interval.
It needs to leave some space for target movement for the area periphery if it is to detect enter & exit
event, which is similar to the warning line.

5.3.4.3 Abandoned Object
Abandoned object means the system will trigger alarm if the abandoned object in the monitoring scene
exceeds the time which has been set by the users.
Abandoned object and missing object can be confusing in a situation where both foreground and
background are complicated.
It also triggers alarm as abandoned object if there is pedestrian or vehicle staying still for too long. In
order to filter this kind of alarm, generally the abandoned object is smaller than people and vehicle;
therefore it can filter the people and vehicle via setting size. Besides, it can avoid the false alarm caused
by short stay of people via extending alarm time properly.
Application scene: It can be applied to the scene where the target is sparse and there is no obvious and
frequent light change. False alarm will be increased in the scene with high target density and frequent
blocking; false alarm will be increased in the scene where there are more people staying. As for the
detection area, try to make it simple, the function is not suitable for the area which is too complicated.

5.3.4.4 Missing Object

Missing object means the system will trigger alarm if it exceeds certain amount of time after the target is
taken away from the original scene.
The system can make statistics of the still areas in the foreground area and distinguish if it is missing
object or abandoned object according to the similarity between foreground and background, it will
trigger alarm when it exceeds the time which is set by users.
Because the system distinguishes abandoned object from missing object according to the similarity of
foreground and background, it may cause error between abandoned object and missing object in a
situation where both foreground and background are complicated.

100
Application scene: it can be applied to the scene where the target is sparse and there is no obvious and
