Application constitution

Administrators can use combinations of options on the application page to perform many useful security applications. Network Camera provides two application modes; one is performed according to the settings on the web page, the other is performed according to the external command script. Though most settings will automatically be done by the Application Wizard, administrators still can adjust the settings from this page.

Weekly schedule

A useful weekly schedule is provided for daily security application. Administrators can select weekdays from Monday to Friday with the daily schedule from 9:00 am to 6:00 pm that no one is at home to perform any event checking. If the security system needs to be installed in office that no one is there during the nights or weekend, administrators just set the time period as above, then check “All the time except for the above schedule” for opposite operations.

External command script

Administrators can write a script named SCRIPT.TXT to perfectly match the additional software according to the Command Script for Complex Applications section in the Chapter Advanced Functions. After uploading this script to Network Camera via FTP, check the option “Enable the external script file to exclude the following settings”. Otherwise Network Camera will operate according to the settings below.

Event operation

Network Camera provides general options for two basic applications, event operation for security and sequential operation for web attraction. In event operation, administrators have to setup some conditions to check and some actions to happen consequently. The conditions include motion detection and the status of digital input. While checking “Detect motion” box, administrators should click “Motion Detection” button on Video page or click “Motion Detection” link in Application page to configure the appropriate parameters. In the newly opened window, percentage of object size over whole window and sensitivity can be fine tuned to fit into the environment. If any motion is over the settings, an ‘M’ will appear on the upper-right corner of image for indication. The ‘M’ will appear in the image to indicate some motion is detected as long as “Show alert in image” is checked. If there are any sensors attached to the digital input, administrators can set the state to fire alarm. There are four states of “Input is High”, “Input is Low”, “Input is Rising” and “Input is Falling”. The edge trigger like “Rising” or “Falling” is generally used to detect the emerging signal from the external sensor. Once any event happens, administrators can select “Delay second(s) after
