Adjust the Detection Sensitivity on the ADC-VDB780B
The Detection Sensitivity setting for the ADC-VDB780B determines how likely a clip will be recorded based on what the device sees in its field of view. A smaller value means that the device is less likely to record a clip due to object motion within its field of view, while a larger value means that the device is more more likely to record a clip due to object motion in its field of view.
Note: Higher levels of sensitivity can reduce the battery life of the device per charge. For more information about the ADC-VDB780B's battery life, see How long can the ADC-VDB780B battery last?.
