Camera Messages

The Messaging and Messaging 2 dialogs allow defining two different sets of messaging paths to be used when different alarms occur.

In this dialog, you set up the camera to only send an e-mail when the video motion sensor detects a movement, but not when the PIR sensor reports an event, for example. See also: Example for Using Event Control.

Notes:
