SETTING UP THE TIME PERIOD

Configuring E-Mail Notification Frequency
Depending on the volume of motion, alarm, or video loss events detected by the DX8100, the number of e-mail notifications can be far too many
to manage effectively. To keep the number of e-mails sent by the DX8100 at a manageable level, the e-mail notification frequency can be
adjusted. When events have been detected, e-mail notifications can be sent out in intervals from once per minute up to once every six hours. If
no events have been detected during the specified frequency interval, no notification will be sent. Each e-mail notification will include
information about the first event detected during the interval, the last event detected during the interval, and a still image (in JPEG format) of the
last event.
