How to configure 

Line Crossing Detection 

on Hinovision IPC?

Hinovision IPC supports multiple VCA (Video Content Analysis) features such as Line Crossing Detection, Intrusion Detection, etc. This tutorial will demonstrate how to configure Line Crossing Detection on Hinovision IP Camera.

Once the Line Crossing Detection on is configured on Hinovision IPC, you will be able to receive audible warning on NVR once alarm is triggered, you can set the NVR to do full screen viewing for the triggered channel, the IPC can send you email with event picture attached, you can also control other PTZ camera to focus on certain area for a more detailed shot. This provides a new way for video surveillance.

IPC Line Crossing Detection configuration can be accessed through Web Interface, Hinovision iVMS-Pro/Lite client software, if the IPC is connected with NVR, you can also configure it from the NVR screen.
