Operating Instructions 115 How to authenticateThe authentication method can be selected: [No authentication], [POP before SMTP authentication] or [SMTP authentication]. POP server authentication may be required by your ISP. In that case, set POP before SMTP authentication. No authentication: No authentication when sending an e- mail. POP before SMTP authentication: Some SMTP servers that send e-mails do not have an authentication feature. Therefore, the camera uses the authentication of a POP server that receives e-mails, before sending e-mails. – POP3 Server IP Address or Host Name *1:If you set a server IP address, set 4 numbers (0—255) and 3 periods, such as 192.168.0.253.

The Trigger page is displayed. Note If you set a short interval when transferring images to a cell phone, many E- mails will be sent, which may lead 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 operating until after the camera finishes all transfers. For example, if the camera transfers 3 images per minute and 6 images in total, Motion Detection will follow the pattern below.Setting Description Disable The camera does not send an E-mail notification when buffering or transferring images. Enable The camera sends an E-mail notification (up to 3 destinations) when buffering or transferring images.

Operating Instructions 120 4.7 Setting the Motion Detection The Motion Detection page allows you to adjust the sensitivity of Motion Detection. Threshold: If the threshold is set low, this function detects nearly all movements. Sensitivity: If you set sensitivity high, the amplitude of the motion detection bar gets jumpy. 1.Click [Motion Detection] on the Setup page. 2.Click the Motion Detection bar in Threshold to set the threshold level. 3.Click the Motion Detection bar in Sensitivity to set the sensitivity level. 4.Click [Save] to save the settings. Clicking [Cancel] cancels your settings without saving changes. 5.Click [Go to Motion Detection page]. The Motion Detection page is displayed. Note The Motion Detection is disabled while tilting.Setting Description Threshold Adjusts the threshold for Motion Detection. As the value is set lower, the sensor will detect motions of smaller changes. Sensitivity Adjusts the sensitivity for Motion Detection. As the value is set higher, the amplitude of the Motion Detection bar will become greater.
Operating Instructions 121 Preview Display the current threshold and detection level. The threshold is the line between the green and red bar. The detection level is the line between the dark red and light red color. The Threshold and Sensitivity settings are enabled after saving, and reflected in preview. The administrator can tilt the camera by using the Click to Center feature. Note No responsibility will be taken by our company with respect to consequences resulting from the use of the Motion Detection feature. The Motion Detection feature is not suitable and not recommended for uses that require a high reliability constantly such as surveillance, etc. Threshold
Operating Instructions 122 What is “threshold”? The threshold is the minimum value for the camera to detect motions on the image during the motion detection buffering. Setting the threshold lower allows subtler changes to be detected. Setting the threshold higher allows only bigger changes that might occupy half the image to be detected. What is “sensitivity”? The sensitivity is the level of brightness detected as motion by the camera. A high sensitivity setting enables the camera to detect slight brightness changes. Lower the sensitivity to make the camera detect only big brightness changes. Note Lowering the threshold and increasing sensitivity enables the camera to detect slight movements easily. Note Motion Detection is activated by changes in the outline of objects and brightness changes. This feature is designed to decrease false detections due to overall brightness changes caused by sunlight. But in some cases, the camera may falsely detect rapid brightness changes by artificial light such as fluorescent light. In other cases, the motion detection function on the Network Camera Recorder may detect objects and brightness changes. The way to detect motion differs between the camera and the Network Camera Recorder (customer-provided). The Threshold is displayed.Only motion above the Threshold is detected.
