Advanced
In Notification > Advanced, you can mute notifications, set the notification types for non-admin users, combine the same notifications, and edit notification variables.
DSM Notification
To configure DSM notifications:
Go to DSM > Control Panel > Notification.
Mute Notifications
To mute/unmute notifications:
- Select a duration from the Mute for drop-down menu.
- Click Turn On. A countdown timer will appear.
- To unmute notifications, click Turn Off.
Note:
- Only Surveillance Station notifications will be muted. DSM notifications will be sent as usual.
Event Snapshot
To attach event snapshots in notifications:
Choose to attach a single snapshot or multiple snapshots along with emails. Attaching multiple snapshots helps record the event more completely, lowering the chance of missing detected movements or objects.
- Select Attach one snapshot or Continue to take snapshots after events.
- Specify the Duration (sec.) and select Attach a GIF file generated by Synology Camera as needed.
- Go to the Email page and make sure Attach an event snapshot is enabled.
Note:
- Only H.264 cameras can continue to take snapshots after an event. The number of snapshots that can be taken within an interval varies by camera model. For H.265 cameras, the email notification will only attach one snapshot, even if you select Continue to take snapshots after events.
- The GIF is generated by merging three images taken after an event at a resolution of 480p.
Mobile Notification
Administrators can decide whether to send all mobile notifications to non-admin users, allow them to receive only notifications of the cameras and devices to which they have privilege, or temporarily pause all their notifications.
To set the mobile notification type for non-admin users:
- Select an option from the Notifications for non-admin users drop-down menu.
- If necessary, tick Encrypt mobile notifications.
Notification Combination
To combine notifications:
Combining notifications allows you to avoid receiving excessive messages about the same events and reduce the loading of the server.
- Tick Combine the same notifications within a specified time.
- Specify the Interval (min.).
Note:
- Enabling notification combination disables the Attach event snapshot setting.
Notification Variables
To edit the variables of the notification message:
- Enter a string in the field at the right of each variable. The variables will be replaced by the specified strings in delivered notification messages.
Note:
- To customize the contents of each notification, go to the Rules page and click Edit.
