Title: 932L uploads to many pictures to ftp
Post by: brentlaw on May 20, 2014, 05:49:40 PM

I use camera DCS 932L and have just upgraded to firmware v1.09.  When motion is detected to many pictures are uploaded.  For example:  I test a simple about 5 second walk through and 274 pictures are uploaded.  I have my Video frame rate set to 1 frame per second.  So a 5 second walk through results in a 5 minute upload every second. 

Two of my test resulted in almost two thousand (2000)frames uploaded.  That is just to many frames uploaded for a 5 second motion. 

My sensitivity is set to 90%.  Would it help if i lowered the sensitivity?

I cannot find a way to shorten the number of frames uploaded after a motion activated event. 

Does anyone else have this problem?

try the sensitivity at about 60 percent
what are your other motion settings?

YES, that was it.  I don't know why i didn't try that.  I tested 60% and was missing the first part of the walk through.  But, the pictures stopped uploading after a couple of seconds after the last motion frame.  Then I changed to 70% and have almost perfect results.  My 5 second walk through only has 9 pictures. 

D-link should add this answer to their FAQ.

Thanks again. ;D
