11.Click [Go to Trigger page].
 The Trigger page is displayed.
Note
 If you set a short interval to transfer image to a cell phone, many E-mails 
may be sent to it leading to a large phone bill. Therefore, we recommend 
you to set a long interval. 1 image per minute frequency is recommended.
 Motion Detection transfer stops its operations until the camera finishes all 
transfers. For example, if the camera transfers 3 images per minute and 6 
images in total, the Motion Detection will be in the following operation.
 If you are buffering images on the internal memory, the following 
operations also delete all buffered images.
– Turning off the camera.
– Saving the Date and Time page.
– Restarting, updating firmware or resetting the camera to factory 
default.
– Maximum number of buffered images change depending on 
resolution, image quality and what object the camera buffers. At the 
320 x 240 pixels resolution and the standard quality, the camera 
buffers about 125 frames. (If 3 triggers are enabled [maximum 5 
triggers], the internal memory capacity is divided into 3 sections. In 
this case, each trigger can buffer about 40 images.) See 3.11 File 
Size and Number of Buffered Images on the Operating Instructions 
for the internal memory capacity.
Note
 A change due to light or wind may detect motions mistakenly.
 Motion detection level is changed depending on resolution, image quality, 
and object situation. Confirm the level by performing motion detection 
recording.
 Enabling Motion Detection delays the frame rate of the camera.
 Objects moving fast may not be detected.
 Motion Detection may not work in the dark.
