Network Failure Detection allows the IP Camera to ping another IP device (e.g.
NVR, VSS, Video Server, etc.) within the network periodically and generates some
actions in case of network failure occurs, for instance, a Video Server is somehow
disconnected.
Being capable of implementing local recording (through microSD card) when net-
work failure happens, the IP Camera could be a backup recording device for the
surveillance system.
Detection Switch
The default setting for the Detection Switch function is <Off>. Enable the function

time that is previously set in the <Schedule> setting page. Select <By schedule>
and click <Please select...> to choose the desired schedule from the drop-down

ting range is from 1 to 99 minutes.

<Upload for __ sec> to set the recording duration after alarm is triggered. The set-
ting range is from 1 to 99999 seconds. Select <Upload during the trigger active> to
