4.3 Buffering or Transferring Images by Motion 
Detection Signal
The Trigger page allows you to enable image buffer/transfer by E-mail or FTP.
Note
 The level of motion detection depends on resolution, image quality, and 
the object being viewed. Check the level by performing motion detection 
recording. (See page 
83)
 Enabling Motion Detection delays the frame rate of the camera.
 A change to light or wind conditions may detect motions accidentally.
 Motion Detection may not work in dark areas.
 Objects moving fast may not be detected. 
1.Click [Trigger] on the Setup page.
2.Click a No. to enable buffer/transfer.
3.Check [Enable Image Buffer/Transfer], select [Motion Detection] for the trigger, 
and click [Next>].

6.Set the image buffer frequency and the Motion deactivation time, and click 
[Next>].
Note
Due to the network environment, object and the number of simultaneous 
accesses, the camera may not record the number of images that you set. In 
this case, set the image buffer frequency longer.

Motion 
deactivation 
time Set the length of time during which the Motion Detection 
cannot be triggered after saving images temporarily or 
transmitting them. This function is recommended to 
prevent sending too many E-mails to a cell phone.
 After detecting motions, the camera does not detect 
motions during motion deactivation time, so some images 
may not be captured.
Note
The internal memory cannot buffer images during motion 
deactivation time. Because of this, images taken before 
detection are not saved in internal memory, and so cannot 
be received. Depending on the settings for image buffer/
transfer, even if it is set to, for example, take 1 image per 
second, and store 10 images, before detection, because 
the images are not stored in internal memory, if the Motion 
Detection detects something directly after the end of 
motion deactivation time, the images may not be saved. 
Ten seconds after the end of motion deactivation time, 
images can be received as specified in the settings (see 
page 
82).

SettingDescription
Server IP 
Address or 
Host Name
*1
*1Note that [Space], [], [], [&], [] are not available.
 If you set a server IP address, set 4 numbers (0—255) and 3 
periods, such as 192.168.0.253. Note that 0.0.0.0 and 
255.255.255.255 are not available. Or set a host name (1—
255 characters).
Po r t N o. Enter a number (1—65535). Usually set to 21.
Login ID*2
*2Note that [] is not available.
 If your ISP requires a login ID, set it (0—63 characters).
Password*2 If your ISP requires a password, set it (0—63 characters).
Login Timing Select the login setting for the FTP server. If you set [One 
Time] and the image buffer frequency value is set within 1 
minute, the camera logs in to the server only once. This can 
reduce transfer time.
Upload File 
Name*1 Set a file name on the FTP server to receive the transferred 
files. Enter 1—234 characters. Entering \ creates directories 
for a file. (E.g. NetworkCamera\image.jpg)
Overwrite 
Setting Selecting [Overwrite File] overwrites the image on the server 
with a newer image. Selecting [Save as New File with Time 
Stamp] saves the image attaching time stamps on the file 
name, and the images are not overwritten.
(E.g. image20050101093020500.jpg) The underlined 
numbers mean 9h30min20s500ms on January 1, 2005. The 
letter s is inserted after the day when referring to a daylight 
saving time zone.
Data 
Tr a n s f e r  
Method Select [Passive Mode] normally. If the transfer does not work, 
select [Active Mode] and check the operation.
