2.2 Configuring a Sensor or Motion Detection Trigger
10.
Under [Image Buffer Frequency], select the desired buffer or transfer rate.
When [MPEG-4] is selected
To configure the camera to save video from after the camera was triggered, click [Enable Post-trigger
Image Buffer] and select how many seconds of video you would like to save. This setting allows you to see
camera images beginning from when the camera was triggered.
When [JPEG] is selected
To configure the camera to buffer or transfer images from before the camera was triggered, click [Enable
Pre-trigger Image Buffer] and select the image buffer or transfer rate and the total number of images to be
buffered or transferred. This setting allows you to see camera images leading up to the moment when the
camera was triggered.
To configure the camera to buffer or transfer images from after the camera was triggered, click [Enable
Post-trigger Image Buffer] and select the image buffer or transfer rate and the total number of images to
be buffered or transferred. This setting allows you to see camera images beginning from when the camera
was triggered.
11.
Under [Sensor deactivation time setting], select the amount of time that must pass after a detection before
this trigger can make another detection.
•
If the camera is triggered often, many images will be buffered or transferred. If those images are
transferred to a mobile phone by E-mail, for example, many messages will be sent and mobile phone
charges may become expensive. It is therefore recommended to use this setting to help reduce the
number of images that are buffered or transferred.
•
Images will not be buffered or transferred during the deactivation time. As a result, pre-buffer images
from the next detection may not be buffered or transferred. For example, if this parameter is set to [10
s], and if the camera is configured to buffer 1 image per second and store 10 images before detection
(i.e., buffer images for 10 seconds), the camera will not buffer or transfer images if the sensor is
triggered within 10 seconds of the previous trigger. Images can only be buffered or transferred 10
seconds after the previous trigger.
The camera can be triggered.
The camera is buffering or transferring images and cannot be triggered during this time.
Deactivation time; the camera cannot be triggered.
A The camera is triggered. Buffering or transferring begins. No new images will be buffered or
transferred.
