Depending on the network line speed or the network traffic, images may not be transmitted at the exact designated interval or period.
•
When “On” is selected for both of the alarm image transmission function and the FTP periodic image transmission function, the alarm image transmission function will be given priority over the FTP periodic image transmission function. For this reason, images may not be transmitted at the exact designated interval or period if alarms occur frequently.
