In a window the list of interface languages, accessible in the program, and also detailed information on the translator. To include any language, click on it, then press OK.

If you wish to translate the interface of the program to language, which in the program is absent (be necessarily convinced, that at you last version of the program!), it is enough to you to translate the texts of one of files which are taking place in the catalogue
"c:\program files\tireal\webcam guard\lng\"

Necessarily send your translation in support, in this case you automatically become registered user and other users can use your translation, all next versions of the program will contain it.

You can choose what device of videocapture the program will use.
[X] Automatically connect at start - device will be connected automatically at start of the program (excepting cases of use /noautoconnect)
[X] Connect after click on OK
[Refresh] - To refresh the list of devices
If the device was changed, it in any case will be reconnected after pressing the button OK.

Snapshots - images saved to the hard disk, by pressing buttons "Save snapshot as..." and "Fast snapshot" or in other ways.
*The description of images parameters see in section 3.7.

The fast snapshot is saved to specified path using beforehand specified file name and image format.

Preferences of motion detector.

Sensitivity limit (0.0%-100.0%) - percentage of difference points in the video which are needed to trigger the event. (The bigger the value the less the sensitivity. Default: 1%.)

Top limit of sensitivity (0.1%-100.0%) limits sensitivity from above.

Limit for point (1-255) - this necessary difference of a point, that it was accepted as different point. (The bigger the value the less the sensitivity. Default: 20.)

The effects are used for more thin configuring of the motion detector.
They render seen influence on the image in a window (and on reaction of the motion detector).
Thus all materials which are written physically on a hard disk by the motion detector, remain constant.
It is not recommended to use effects at work WWW server and Local server.

Erase noise (0x-9x)
Erase noise filters single points or their groups forming "noise".

Also used, if it is necessary to set the motion detector to the maximal sensitivity and at the same time to make motion detector insensitive to tiny objects (birds, insects).

Smooth (0-0.9)
Smooth makes the image by more inert.

Is used to lower the sensitivity of sharp changes in a video stream.

Increases stability to vibrations.

It is possible to differentiate objects based on their speed.
At strong smoothing (value 0.5 and higher) only the slow changes will be detected.
[X] Use smooth in normal mode - the image will be smoothed at preview mode and at video capturing mode

[X] Show a difference map
Difference map - it only visual effect, it does not affect the sensitivity of the motion detector.
”Show a difference map” mode works only if video data transfer is set to RGB24.

1. Difference map is not active	2. Difference map is active

The difference map specifies, which pixels have changed and which of them were cut by Erase noise.

Color	Value
	Pixel changed
	Pixel changed, but was cut by Erase noise

Is used for restriction of motion detector area.

The area is drawn by the mouse, the size of a brush is set and it’s alignment to a grid.

The motion detector area is highlighted by red.

1. Up to the task of motion detector area	2. The motion detector area is set

Changed pixels are calculated regarding to full size of image, irrespective of the size of motion detector area.

Window of events restrictions

For each of a 7 events you can set temporary restriction on execution (sets the minimal time between two same events). If is chosen "-", restriction is not present.

Events of motion detector. Part 1.

Save images on event.
The images format choose out of three formats: jpg, gif, bmp.
If the format is established in <--->, the snapshots are not saving.
These preferences are distributed to all images saved by the motion detector, and on the images sent by E-mail.
*The description of images parameters see in section 3.7.

Time of capture (1-3600 sec) - maximal duration of video capturing after the event has occurred.

[X] To stop capturing, if there are no events

Time for waiting of events (100-60000 ms):
