detection can all be used to detect conditions in external environments. You can congure
certain kind of actions to take place in response to the alarms: such as,
1. recording the immediate image,
2. sending an Email notication,
3. sounding the onboard buzzer,
4, sending snapshots to an FTP server,
5. sending videos to a web server,
6. moving camera lens to a preset location,
7. triggering a camera's digital output.
The operation details of the Alarm panel and Alarm Playback utility have been described on
page 168.
