  • When using Viewtron AI cameras, you will almost certainly want to disable traditional motion detection alarms and recording on your Viewtron security system NVR. One of the main purposes of Viewtron AI software is to eliminate the false alarms  that are prevalent with traditional video motion detection. Follow these steps to turn video motion detection off on your Viewtron NVR.

    disable motion detectionFrom the main settings menu, select AI / Event. One the AI / Event screen:

    1. Click on the AI / Event link.
    2. Click on the Motion link on the left.
    3. Set the Schedule to <None> for all of your security cameras.

    Click Apply in the lower right.

    You should also ensure that you Viewtron NVR is setup not to record on Motion Detection Events.

    AI camera recording

    Select Record from the main settings menu. Make sure the recording mode that you are using DOES NOT include Motion Record.

    For Viewtron AI security camera systems, I usually recommend to setup a custom recording configuration that consists of Always (24 x 7) Recording + AI Record. This give you continuous recording but also bookmarks all of the AI detection events. This way you never miss any recording but it is easy to locate the human detection and / or vehicle detection events on your system. If you are using LPR cameras and face recognition cameras, those AI events will also all be bookmarked.
