6.12 – Alarm Service Settings
Alarm service settings allow you to enable motion detection. You can set motion detection on a certain
schedule, and set up e-mail notification alerts here as well.
The settings above are explained in detail below:
Motion Detect Armed – This feature enables motion detection. If this is unchecked, motion detection is
disabled and you will not receive any alerts.
Motion Detect Sensitivity – This feature adjusts the sensitivity of the motion detection. The lower the
number, the less sensitive the motion detection will be. If the number is higher, the motion detection will
be very sensitive.
Motion Compensation – This feature will help reduce any false alarms caused by quick light fluctuations
or similar incidents.
Send Mail on Alarm – If you would like to set up e-mail notifications, check this feature to have e-mails
sent every time motion is detected. If this feature is not checked, you will not receive any e-mail alerts.
Make sure your information on the Mail Service Settings page is filled in correctly.
Upload Image on Alarm – This setting allows you to upload images using the FTP settings you have set
in FTP Service Settings. You can set the upload interval here as well in seconds.
