By default, the entire FoV is a Scene analytics detection tools zone. If you need to exclude parts of the scene prone to false alarms from detection (leaves, water, etc.), you should set exclude areas – zone with Scene analytics detection tools and metadata generation disabled.
To do so, follow the steps:
In the FoV, set the nodes of the closed area, in order, inside of which you want no detection.
Note
When the area is being constructed, the nodes are connected by a two-color dotted line which outlines the area's borders.
Note
For your convenience, you can click the button and configure the mask on a still frame/snapshot. To undo, click this button again.

Once the area is closed, you will see the buttons on the borderlines. If you click them, a new node is added. This allows you to be more flexible with zoning.

Click the Apply button.
You have successfully created the detection zone.

These settings will apply for all Scene analytics detection tools on the selected camera.
