How to use the Motion Search function in MOBOTIX HUB DeskClient

Search for motion

When you search for video recordings with motion, you can apply filters to show only search results with motion in areas that you define.

Use smart search to find video footage of a person entering through a doorway that is monitored by multiple cameras.

  • Recording is triggered by MxHub Motion Detection

How to configure and use the Search Fiter is explained in the next steps.

Short explanation of motion treshold:

  • The higher the threshold, the more motion is required to activate motion detection. Likely, this will produce fewer search results.
  • The lower the threshold, the less motion is required to activate motion detection. Likely, this will produce more search results.
