How to 
authenticateYou can select the authentication method: [No authentication], 
[POP before SMTP authentication] and [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.

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.

 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
