Surveillance Activation Settings
These settings control how the DCE server responds to motion detected at the selected camera or cameras.| Element | Description |
|---|---|
| Post Mode | Select when clip images (and, optionally, audio) from the camera will be stored on the server.
Send on Motion Detected the camera will send clips to be archived whenever its motion sensor is activated (the default selection). Send Continuously During Alerts: the camera will send clip images to be stored whenever an alert triggers the camera. Send on Motion Detected During Alerts: the camera will send clip images to be archived if motion is detected during an alert. Disabled: no surveillance data will be automatically stored. Note When using a post mode that requires a camera to be triggered by an alert, that camera must be selected by an alert threshold's Cameras to Trigger option in the Advanced tab of the threshold's "Configure Settings" display. For more information, see Alert Settings option (NetBotz Appliance Configuration option). |
| Event Send Retry (seconds) | Specify how many seconds the camera will wait before it attempts to post again, if it receives no response when attempting to send a clip to the Data Center Expert server (a minimum of 5, the default, and a maximum of 60). |
| Camera Resolution | Select the resolution used for the images captured by the camera.
Note The available sizes depend on the capabilities of the selected camera, with larger image resolutions requiring increased amounts of storage space. |
| Target Image Capture Rate | Set the number of frames per second to be recorded when a clip is captured (1 frame per second, by default). |
| Event Duration Trigger (seconds) | Set the amount of delay between the start of an event and the beginning of a clip's capture. |
| Surveillance Scheduling | Click to use the "Surveillance Scheduling" display to specify when the camera is enabled and disabled (always enabled, by default). |
