E-Mail Mode
Select when the network camera server should
send e-mail.
The network camera server will attach an alarm
picture to the e-mail by selecting alarm type.
Notes:
• When notifying of an alarm occurring by e-mail,
set the LAN card (eth0) on the PC server to the
delivering side.
• In the following cases, notifying the correct IP
address of the network camera server by e-mail
may fail:
• When the LAN card (eth0) on the PC server
is not set to the delivering side.
• When a router is installed between the
Internet and the network camera server and
network address translation (NAT) is used.
In this case, open all files whose name
starts from "template_alarm" in
"/usr/local/s3/template/" with an editor soft-
ware, and change the "%i" part to make
addresses accessible to the Internet.
• In the following cases, it will not be possible to
browse pictures even if an address in an e-mail
is clicked:
• When "Do not notify." is selected for "E-Mail
Mode".
• When an alarm has been transmitted by a
camera set to deliver MPEG-4 pictures.
• It will be impossible to identify which camera
is transmitting an alarm signal if a router is
installed between the camera site and the
network camera server, and when sharing
an IP address at the center site for two or
more cameras using network address trans-
lation (NAT). In this case, the network cam-
era server will regard the camera with the
lowest camera number as the camera trans-
mitting the alarm signal.

What is "image acquisition loss"?
When the network camera server cannot acquire pic-
tures from a camera site, the network camera server
regards it as "image acquisition loss". The "image
acquisition loss" may happen when a camera is mal-
functioning, the power of the camera is off, breaking of
wire, connection trouble, etc.
