utilization for extended periods). If you have seen Blue Iris inexplicably use high system
resources for large blocks of time, this may be the culprit.
• By placing a hyphen (-) at the end of a preset name/number, it is excluded from the
preset auto-cycle.

• The Alternate frame rate option that was previously only available for Continuous
recording may now be used for manual and motion based video recording
(See 7.4).
• A new Options page has been added to manage Email Server settings (See 11.). Instead
of re-entering this information over and over again on each camera's alert/email and
SMS pages, it's now done in one centralized location. The Email server configuration
page now also features a Preset option to help configure many popular email servers
such as GMail.
• Support for email servers which require the STARTTLS command have been
added. These include Yahoo and AOL.
• A new Options page has been added to manage FTP Server settings (See 11.). Instead of
re-entering this information over and over again on each camera's Post page as well as
the Options/Clips page, it's now done in one centralized location. The FTP server
configuration page features a Test option to check your settings prior to deployment.
• A new Options page has been added to manage User settings (See 11.). The role of the
user eventually will be expanded to allow for varying levels of access to management
features of the software.
• Support for the Sealevel SeaDAC Lite (P/N 8112 and similar) has been added. This is a
DIO (Digital Input/Output) device which will allow you to trigger a camera's motion
detector (See 7.3) based on a digital input signal received from an external source such
as an alarm system, home security system, PIR sensor, electric gate, electric eye, etc. It
may also be used to send an output signal to another device or system
when the motion
detector is triggered (See 7.5). The Sealevel 8112 has 4 digital inputs and 4 digital relay
outputs. Support for other devices may be added based on device manufacturer's
developer support and customer demand. In addition to the device and its drivers being
installed, you must also have the SeaMAX.dll in your Blue Iris program folder.

• The Audio trigger has been modified to use an average-energy algorithm instead of a
peak value in order to allow for further "less sensitive" settings. This was necessary to
account for devices on which it is not possible to adjust the audio gain downward.
• A new software option allows you to select to Prioritize cameras which are sensing
motion (See 11.) during the Full-screen auto-cycle
