Default Sensor and Alarm Behaviour
When armed, YOYOCam will raise the alarm when a sensor is triggered. By default, the built-in
infrared body sensor is enabled and camera movement detection is disabled. See
Sensor Settings
for
more information.
When a sensor triggers the alarm, YOYOCam sends an SMS to the Master followed by an MMS with
images. Other options include voice call and E-Mail alarms.Detector, image and alarm settings can be
configured. For more information, see
Alarm Settings.
STEP 4 – Refine YOYOCam Settings
Here are some of the settings that you may like to change in order to configure YOYOCam to your
needs.
Optimize image settings
By default, YOYOCam takes five images at an interval of 0.5 seconds between each shot. The image
size is 320 x 240 pixels. You may wish to have fewer images at higher resolution, e.g.2 images at 640
x 480 pixels. (2 images is the maximum at this resolution).
Command:
