Notify server
This function is meant for integration with NVR Station, which is 32-channel video management
software. Here you put in the IP address of a PC running the NVR Station program, and then you set up
event detection and event trigger, and choose "Notication" as an event action. Later when an event is
triggered, the camera can notify the PC running NVR Station that an event has been triggered, and the
NVR Station can then sound alarms, start recording, etc., in response. The advantage of using this function
is that it allows you to move some workload of doing video analytics from the PC running NVR station to
the edge devices such as IP cameras. So the video analytics and event detection would not take up too
many CPU resources on the PC running video management software like NVR station.

HTTP server
If available, enter the address of your NVR's HTTP server. The HTTP URL entered here is meant for the
camera to use HTTP protocol to send a notication message to your network video recorder's HTTP server
when unusual events are detected by the camera. The NVR can then respond to the notication message.

SMS server
Here provides the conguration for SMS notication feature that allows the camera to send a SMS (Short
Message Service) alert message to one or more pre-dened recipients when a pre-dened event scenario
is being triggered. This feature does not require additional hardware GPRS modem and SIM card installed.
