By default, the initial zone for each camera is the entire viewing area captured in the live feed window. Click and drag the Adjustment Points from each corner of the window to the perimeter of the area you would like to define as your zone. Only motion within this zone will trigger recording.

Click to test the zone you just created and adjust the sensitivity using the Sensitivity Slider control. Image trails will appear when motion is detected and the sensitivity level and motion spikes will appear in the bottom right corner of the camera feed. The sensitivity level (from 0 to 100) is shown in the box to the right of the slider control. As various degrees of motion occur, you'll see different level spikes. Adjust the sensitivity to a level that best suits your needs. Motion spikes that exceed the defined sensitivity threshold will be recorded when motion recording is enabled.
