Video Menu - Smart - CC - Setup

When you click a camera's Setup icon in the CC sub-menu the CC Setup screen will be displayed.

 

In the CC setup screen you can create up a line crossing which allows you to monitor or retrospectively analyse movement across this imaginary barrier.

 

 

Setting Up Cross Counting Detection In The Smart Sub-menu On A Zip DVR Or NVR

 

 

Selecting Your Camera

You can select the camera you want to configure cross counting for from Camera drop down list.

 

Selecting A Line Crossing

Currently you can only create 1 cross counting line per camera. These cross counting configurations are called Rules. You can select which Rule you want to create or edit by selecting it from the Rule Number drop down list.

 

To make things easier you can quickly tell which cross counting belongs to which Rule as it has a red Rule Number at the start of the line.

 

Creating A Cross Counting Line

To create a cross counting just follow these easy steps:

1.Select the Rule Number you want to create the line crossing for from the Rule Number drop down list.

2.Click on the camera's image where you want to start the cross counting line.

3.Click where you want to stop the cross counting line.

 

You will notice as you are setting your points the recorder will draw a yellow line between them.

 

Editing A Cross Counting Line

You can edit an existing cross counting line as followed:

1.Select the Rule Number you want to edit the line crossing for from the Rule Number drop down list.

2.Click the red square at the start of the line.

3.Click and drag the the start and end points to reposition them.

4.Click the red square at the start of the line to confirm and set the new positions.

 

Choosing Which Direction Of Line Crossing Causes A Trigger

There are 2 options as to what direction of movement will trigger CC. We call these options Rule Types.

 

For simplicity we label the area on one side of the line A and the area on the other side of the line B. The direction of movement is also indicated by the light blue arrow in the middle of the line. To choose a Rule Type first select the Rule Number you want configure then select a Rule Type as described below from the Rule Type drop down list.

A->B - This option will only trigger when an object moves across the line from side A to side B.

B->A - This option will only trigger when an object moves across the line from side B to side A.

 

Deleting Cross Counting Lines

You have 2 options when removing cross counting lines from a camera; you can remove individual lines or all lines as explained below. As you can currently only create 1 cross counting line both methods will have the same effect:

 

Remove Cross Counting Lines

To remove a cross counting line click the Red Square at the start of the line to select it and then click the Remove button to delete it.

 

Remove All Line Crossings

To remove all cross counting lines from the chosen camera simply click the Remove All button.

 

Saving Changes

When you are happy with the current settings click the Save button. If you exit the window without saving any changes will be lost.
