Digest viewer

If you select On, an HTML file (.html) and a Java Script file (.js) are added every 100 files.

When you open the added HTML file using a general browser, the digest viewer runs and you can view the still pictures in the alarm buffer in sequence (quasi- animation).

See “Operating the Digest Viewer” on page 29.

Note

If the Suffix menu is set to None, you cannot select On. When you want to use the digest viewer, set the Suffix menu to Date/Time or Sequence number.

A represents a folder created automatically. The Date folder has a 6-digit folder name consisting of the lower two digits of year (2 digits), month (2 digits) and date (2 digits) . The Sensor, and Act Det (activity detection) folders correspond to alarm modes. The Timer folder corresponds to the periodical recording mode. And, the Manual folder corresponds to the manual mode.

JPEG image files are stored in each folder. If the digest viewer is allowed, an HTML file (.html) and a Java Script file (.js) are created automatically at the time of each alarm event. For the periodical recording mode, an HTML file (.html) and a Java Script file (.js) are created automatically every 100 JPEG image files.
