Trigger action -	There are four options for two actions regarding
	either trigger condition. They can have multiple
	selections. While choosing the trigger output
	alarm, the digital output will short both pins to
	connect the circuit of the attached external
	device; otherwise both pins will be open. While
	choosing to upload snapshots, the method can
	be either email or FTP. The snapshot names will
	be “videopre.jpg”, videotrg.jpg”, and
	“videopos.jpg” respectively for the snapshots
	before event, right upon event, and after event.
	The date and time suffix may be added according
	to the option. Confirm the external mail or FTP
	server settings in network configuration.

specified interval to the external server according to the chosen method. Remember this operation is dependent to the weekly schedule.

Send snapshots by FTP - The captured snapshots will upload to the

	external FTP server with the file name depending
	on the next option. It can be used to refresh the

date and time suffix -
	can be easily differentiated from the snapshot file
	name in either sequential or event operation. For
	instance, “video@20020102030405.jpg” means
	the JPEG image was captured at 4 minutes and
	5 seconds after 3 o’clock, January 2nd, A.D. 2002.
