I rigged up some diodes in a little circuit so that I can go from POE to powered off an RC car battery and wireless on the camera while it's still on. It works nicely.
Though I've never used it as such, it has a screen for "Event Configuration" where you can set it for Motion detection. It also has a decent variable focus aperture iris for different lighting conditions. (so you don't over-saturate the CCD, e.g. outside). It can do ftp, http, or tcp event server storage of motion video or still jpeg images. _______________________________________________ Discuss mailing list Discuss@lopsa.org http://lopsa.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/discuss This list provided by the League of Professional System Administrators http://lopsa.org/
