The auto connect feature guarantees an active connection to

auto connect

 

the given alarm IP address even after connection break-

 

 

down or network failures. If auto connect is selected, the

 

 

network cable can be pulled any time. As soon as the net-

 

 

work comes back alive, the connection is reinstated. On a

 

 

receiver, this feature is enabled to establish a connection

 

 

to a transmitter automatically.

off

Alarm conditions can also be documented by e-mail.

 

 

When triggered, an e-mail message with attached JPEG-

 

 

encoded video frame is sent to the given e-mail recipient.

 

 

 

Idle state

open

The output contacts of the built-in relay are configured to

 

 

be either closed or open when the relay is idle.

 

 

 

Operating

bistable

When the default bistable mode is selected, the relay will stay

mode

 

in the idle or active state for an indefinite period. In the

 

 

monostable operation mode, the relay will automatically

 

 

fall back to the idle state after a predefined period expires.

 

 

 

Relay follows

none

Operation of the relay can also be automated. Selecting any

 

 

entry from the list ties the operation of the relay to the re-

 

 

spective action or condition. A typical application is having

 

 

the relay following the status of the connection; for example,

 

 

to power peripheral equipment or even the camera itself.

 

 

 

Operate relays

n/a

Clicking the button operates the relay. Typical applications

 

 

are opening remote doors or operating lights.
