  • Page 100 Camera -> Advance -> Alarm Buffer (only certain models): On this page you can define the size of the alarm image buffer. The camera holds a maximum of 10 seconds of video in the buffer. When an event occurs and the camera uploads a video clip to an FTP server or sends it via e-mail, the length of the video is determined by the buffer settings on this page.
  • Page 101 Camera -> Advance -> Motion Detection: The Network Camera features integrated motion detection. The camera does a frame-by-frame comparison and then determines, based on the motion detection window, sensitivity settings and threshold, whether or not a motion has occurred. This motion detection does not use Infrared. It requires a visible image in order to function.

  • Page 104 Camera -> Advance -> System Log: The Network Camera features a log function for system messages. These are system messages about the camera start-up procedure, e-mail deliveries, FTP uploads, motion detection and more. The camera stores the messages in its internal memory and displays them on the system log screen.
  • Page 105 The remote log function uses the Syslog Protocol, which is a standard for forwarding log messages in an IP network. Syslog is a client/server protocol. The Syslog sender (the Network Camera) sends a small (less than 1KB) textual message to the Syslog server. This user manual shows one example of a Syslog server, the 3CDaemon utility by 3Com Corporation (Download Location: http://support.3com.com/software/utilities_for_windows_32_bit.htm).
