Mute Notifications

To turn off notifications for a short period of time:

  1. Under the Mute Notifications section, select a duration from the Mute for drop-down menu to mute notifications.

Note:

Event Snapshot

Under Event Snapshot, you can choose to attach a single snapshot or multiple snapshots taken within a specified interval to email messages when an event is detected. Attaching multiple snapshots can help record the event more completely, lowering the chance of missing detected movements or objects in the pictures.

To attach multiple snapshots taken within a specified interval

  1. Select the Take snapshots when detecting events, and continue to take snapshots within a specified duration after the events occur option.

  3. Click Save to apply changes.

  2. Click Save to apply changes.
