Set the Streaming Duration
Traditional IP cameras stream continuously. Battery-powered, wire-free cameras stream only when motion
is detected. The camera provides two streaming duration modes:
•
Motion detection only. By default, the camera starts streaming when it detects motion and stops
streaming shortly after it no longer detects motion.
•
Motion detection with a set duration.The camera starts streaming when it detects motion and continues
to stream for a period of 10 to 300 seconds, after which the camera stops streaming.
To set the streaming duration for a camera:
1.
Open a web browser from a computer or mobile device that is connected to the same LAN as the base
station.
If you are unable to connect to the same LAN using WiFi, use an Ethernet cable to connect a computer
to the same router or switch as the base station.
2.
Enter the domain name or IP address of the base station.
If you do not know the domain name or IP address, see

page 16.
A login window opens.
3.
Enter the base station password.
The password is the one that you specified the first time that you logged in. The password is
case-sensitive.
