Actions

 

Choose the desired options to designate actions that the camera takes when

 

 

events occur:

 

 

E-Mail—Causes an e-mail message to be delivered to the SMTP server.

 

 

The e-mail alerts users that an event has occurred, and may include a

 

 

video file of the event and the URL of an FTP server from which users

 

 

can download the video file. (For more information about e-mail

 

 

messages, see the “Mail & FTP Window” section on page 3-21.)

 

 

FTP—Causes the video file to upload to the FTP server. (The FTP

 

 

server must be configured as described in the “Mail & FTP Window”

 

 

section on page 3-21.)

 

 

Alarm Output 1—Applies to output port 1 on the IP camera. Causes the

 

 

output port state to be activated as configured. (For more information

 

 

about output ports, see the “Alarm I/O Ports Window” section on

 

 

page 3-27.)

 

 

Alarm Output 2—Applies to output port 2 on the IP camera. Causes the

 

 

output port state to be activated as configured (For more information

 

 

about output ports, see the “Alarm I/O Ports Window” section on

 

 

page 3-27.)

 

 

Interval—Choose the amount of time, in minutes, that the camera waits

 

 

after detecting a condition before it triggers an event. A setting of 0

 

 

indicates no delay.

 

 

 

Video Attachment

Note These Video Attachment options appear if you enable the Trigger Event option and select the E-Mail or FTP option.

If you do not check this option, new video files are not saved when the

 

SDRAM on the IP camera does not have room for the files.

immediately after the event.

 

The default value is 5.
