    Can i connect an external motion detector module to a Camera (HikVision)

    Hi there. As above... the model of my camera is a DS-2DE4A425IWG-E The reason is (and this is the way i see it pardon the pun) - am i right in saying that the camera's motion detector only picks up motion that actually comes into its view...? The question was if you were to mount a motion...

    Does anyone have a walkthrough on how to set up tracking on the new gui.

    Some initial questions after my look/see into the tracking... Am i right in saying that for every preset position the camera goes to you can apply tracking perameters to that preset?
