Record Snapshots to your FTP server

with Motion Detection

Administrators can combine options on the application page to perform many

useful security tasks. There are two trigger sources available: from an external

sensor or with built-in motion detection. There are also two kinds of actions

that can respond to these events that include uploading snapshots over the

internet and driving attached devices. To upload the snapshots, users can choose

either email or FTP according to user’s needs. Both e-mail and FTP use the

network settings on the network page. This section describes how to enable

motion detection and record snapshots to an FTP server.

If no external sensor is available, administrators can utilize the built-in motion

detection to monitor any abnormal movement and record the snapshots to an

FTP or SMTP server.

In this window, follow the steps below to ensure that motion detection is correctly

enabled:

c

Check “Enable motion detection.”

d

Click on “New” to have a new window to monitor video.

e

Enter in a window name.

f

Tune the “Sensitivity” and “Percentage” according to the local

environment. The highest sensitivity and lowest percentage provides

the most sensitive setting.

button under the

tab from the

Configuration

screen to access settings that affect how the

DCS-5300G

Internet Camera can serve as a security device by recording only when motion

is detected.

Record Snapshots to your FTP server with

Motion Detection (continued)

In this window, enter the settings for the FTP server you wish to record to.

Optionally, you can enter settings for a secondary backup FTP server.

Local FTP server port-

The Default port is 21. To connect to an FTP sever,

it is recommended that you do not change the

port number unless your camera is behind a

router. If your camera is behind a router, you can

assign any port number to this field, but you must

enable port forwarding on the router. Please refer

to your router manual for more information on port

forwarding.

1st FTP server-

If you are going to upload snapshots to an FTP

server, you will need to fill in the Domain name or

IP address of your external FTP server such as

ftp://dlink.com or ftp://123.123.123.1. (The server

name and IP address will vary

depending on the

user.) The following user settings must be

correctly configured for remote access.
