3-8 Email/FTP Alarm
The IP CAM provides the Email/ftp function, you can enable or schedule the Email/ftp
ability in this page, the IP CAM will then send out an email with a jpeg picture attached in
the email and/or send out the jpeg picture file to a ftp server. The related settings are
explained below:
1. Email/FTP trigger – choose between “motion”, “D/I”, “schedule” and “disable”
A. If “motion” is selected, it means that when there is a motion detected, the system
will send out the email and/or ftp with the captured video snapshot.
B. If “D/I” is selected, it means that when there is a Digital input alarm detected, the
system will send out the email and/or ftp with the captured video snapshot. If the
D/I alarm is constantly on, the IP camera will keep sending out email/ftp message
every second for up to 30 seconds.
C. If “schedule” is selected, it means that the email/ftp alarm detection and triggering
will be scheduled by the “scheduling” in section 3.9.
D. “disable” will disable the email/ftp alarm.
2. Motion sensitivity – there are three possible choices in this field.
“High” means high sensitivity, i.e., the detection is triggered by a very small movement
in the video image. If “High” is selected and the size of the moving object is larger than
about 1% of the whole video area, it is detected. Please be noticed that the real size of
the object could be large or small, anyway, the detection is only based on the relative
size of the object. Probably a small pencil moving near the IP CAM could be detected,
but a moving car far away from the IP CAM could not be detected.
“Low” means low sensitivity, i.e., the detection is triggered by a very large movement. If
the size of the moving object is larger than about 10% of the whole video area, it is
detected. “Median” means 3% to trigger the detection.
3. Send email message – if this item is enabled, the IP CAM will send out an email
message with the jpeg picture attached to the specified email account.
4. Email recipient – this is the email address to receive the detection notice message. An
email message with the jpeg picture file named by the date/time of the triggered
moment will reach this address.
5. SMTP server – this is the SMTP server that will help to transfer the email message. This
server is irrelevant to the “Email recipient” address.
6. SMTP username/password – this is the account to use the SMTP server to transfer the
