Applications Windows

The Applications windows provide options for configuring and managing a variety of applications and IP camera activities.

The following sections describe the Applications windows in detail:

•Mail/FTP/HTTP Window, page 3-27.

•Motion Detection Window, page 3-30

•Event Window, page 3-31

•SNMP Window, page 3-34

•Alarm I/O Ports Window, page 3-35

Mail/FTP/HTTP Window

The Mail/FTP/HTTP window includes options for configuring the following actions that can be triggered by an event:

•Sending an e-mail or HTTP event notification message that informs you that an event occurred.

•Sending an event video file to an FTP server.

Note Even though the Mail/FTP/HTTP window allows you to configure the sending of event notification messages and event video files, these actions will not occur until you associate them to an event trigger as described in the “Event Window” section on page 3-31.

An event notification message can provide a link to an FTP server from which you can download an associated event video file to a local PC. The event video file name is:

camera-name-event_name-yymmdd-hhmmss.xxx

where:

•camera-nameis the name of the IP camera, as configured in the Camera Name field in the Basic Setup window.

•event-namedescribes the event that caused the alert. For motion detection events, this field is the name of the video field area in which motion was detected (for example, Window 2). For input events, this field is input1 or input2, depending on which input port the event was detected.

•yymmdd is the 2-digit year, month, and date on which the event occurred.

•hhmmss is the, hours, minutes, and seconds at which the event occurred.

•xxx is the format of the file (asf, mp4, or 3gp), as configured in the Video Format (MPSG-4) field in the Event window.

By default, the video in an event video file starts when an event starts and ends 5 seconds after the event ends. You can designate that additional video be included before and after an event as described in the “Event Window” section on page 3-31.

To display the Mail/FTP/HTTP window, access the configuration windows as described in the “Accessing the IP Camera Windows” section on page 2-25, click Applications, then click Mail/FTP/HTTP.
