Why do my cameras randomly default back to 80% under Device Utilities > Motion Detection Test?

Why do my cameras randomly default back to 80% under Device Utilities > Motion Detection Test?

Sometimes is seems that recharging a camera will trigger this. Other times it seems like a random event. Even if I have to charge my cameras more frequently, I'd prefer they are at 100% sensitivity.

Hi

 

The Motion Detection Test is a convenient utility tool for you to play around with your device and identify the optimal sensitivity that best addresses your needs at the installed location. The camera will not actually use this setting during regular operation. Once you are happy with a sensitivity value using the tool, you must go to Mode and edit the motion detection rule specific to that camera to apply the desired setting.
