- Pre-event: A pre-event buffer contains images from the time immediately preceding the
event trigger. These are stored internally in the server. This buffer can be very useful when
checking to see what happened to cause the event trigger. Enter the desired total length in
seconds and specify the required frame-rate (fps).
- Post-event: This function is the counterpart to the pre-trigger buffer described above and
contains images from the time immediately after the trigger. Configure as for pre-event.
- Prefix file name: This name will be used for all the image files saved. If suffixes are also
used, the file name will take the form <prefix>.<suffix>.<extension>.
- Additional suffix: Add either a date/time suffix or a sequence number - with or without a
maximum value.
When the settings are complete, click Save, or click Reset to revert to previously saved settings.
 HTTP Server
When the network camera detects an event, HTTP Server is used to receive uploaded image files
and/or notification messages. Check the "Enable HTTP server" box to enable the service.
