ALARM FUNCTIONS

When an alarm sounds, the camera performs output functions depending on the setup.

Inputs:

The alarm sensor connected to the ALARM IN ter- minal on the camera

The built-in VMD (Video Motion Detector) that detects a motion in video by monitoring the speci- fied area

Outputs:

“Alarm” display appears in the upper right corner of the main page.

The picture files as an alarm sounds are stored in the camera.

An e-mail notifies the specified addresses of the alarm activation with or without a picture file.

The stored picture files are sent to the FTP server.

The ALARM OUT terminal on the camera becomes active.

The notice of an alarm activation is sent to the serv- er specified in Panasonic Protocol Setup, using the Panasonic's original protocol.

When an Alarm Arises

“Alarm” display appears in the upper right corner of the main page. The alarm status display may delay for a maximum of half a minute due to its refresh cycle.

The pictures as an alarm sounds are stored in the memories of the camera.

The total storage number of the pictures depends on three factors: pixel numbers, picture quality, and the number of pre-alarm storage. The existing oldest data will be replaced with new picture data when the data volume exceeds over the memory capacity. The tables below give guidelines of the available picture numbers for the post-alarm stor- age .

A mail can be sent to a maximum of four address- es, with or without attached picture file.

A mail contains: the camera name, time & date of occurrence, cause of event, and the reference addresses to the stored pictures as follows.

The number of stored alarm pictures: e.g., 472

URL of the picture: http//(Camera IP address)/ ALMxxxx_00.jpg

Notes:

“xxxx” stands for the event number, and “00” for the picture number.

A picture numbered “00” will be automatically attached to the mail.

Enter “39” instead of “00” in the address bar if you wish to view #40 picture.

There may be cases where you cannot access the images notified by the mail when new alarm activa- tions took place after having sent the mail.
