Configuring Minimum Event Length

The Minimum Event Length setting controls the minimum duration of continuous motion required for a Motion Direction event to be generated by the plug-in.

...

By default, the plug-in will create an event after detecting 1 second of continuous motion. If too many short, non-meaningful Motion Direction events are appearing in OpCenter, increase the Minimum Event Length value.
