Fixed Wireless/Wired IP Camera

3.8. Motion Detection

The IP CAM provides the motion detection function, you can enable the motion

detection 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. Detection 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.

2. 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.

3. 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.

4. SMTP server - this is the SMTP server that will help to transfer the email message.

This server is irrelevant to the “Email recipient” address.

5. SMTP username/password - this the account to use the SMTP server to transfer

the email message. The SMTP server and username/password account are only

for transfer the email message to the “Email recipient”, the “Email recipient” could

be on another email server or any reachable email address.

6. Send FTP message - if this item is enabled, the IP CAM will send out a jpeg

picture file to the specified ftp account.

7. FTP server - this is the FTP server address to receive the jpeg file.

8. FTP username/password - this is the username/password to login into the FTP

server, so, this triggered jpeg file will be allowed to reach this FTP server.

9. Remote folder - the jpeg file will be put under this folder of the FTP server.

When this modification is “Save&Apply”ed, it works immediately, but all the

connected video viewing users will be disconnected.

The default setting is “Disable Motion Detection”.
