you select will trigger an event. The event can be to send a email, to send a Image to a FTP server,
or to send a series of images (before and after the motion is detected) to a email address or a FTP
server-all with software built into the camera, nothing else is required.

continuous video on a 20-gigabyte hard drive.
11. What is Power-over-Ethernet (PoE)?
Power-over-Ethernet (PoE) or "Active Ethernet" eliminates the need to run power to devices on a
wired LAN. Using Power-over-Ethernet, installers need to run only a single CAT5 Ethernet cable
that carries both power and data to each device. This allows greater flexibility and significantly
decreases installation costs in many cases.

PC 2002 devices, such as the Compaq iPAQ, HP Jornada, Dell Axim, Casio Cassiopeia and many
other devices.
