 Format is an option for formatting the card. Whenever you install a
new card, you will need to format the card. Formatting erases
everything on the card. After clicking Format, follow the prompts.
Note: Every time you format the card, all of the content will be erased.
If you have content that you need to save, make sure you save it off the
card before formatting.
 Unmount is an option to disable the ability to record onto the SD
card without having to remove the card. You will have the option to
mount a dismounted card. Click Apply to save the setting.
Storage Device
Using the Storage Device option, you can introduce another element of
the Vimtag solution, the VimBox. The VimBox is an ideal DIY (Do It
Yourself) security solution for homes and small businesses that require
the recording of many hours of continuous video.
To use a VimBox, you must first connect the VimBox to the same network
where one or more Vimtag cameras are connected. Once you have
confirmed that the VimBox is connected, you need to enter the VimBox ID
and password and enable its use in the Storage Device tab. For more
information on the VimBox, see the VimBox documentation.
Working with the Camera Settings
Motion and Notification
The cameras can detect motion in the viewing areas and can, as a result
of that detection, take a snapshot, record a video, trigger an alert, etc.
The Motion and Notification tab offers two options to configure what the
camera should do if and when motion is detected in the covered area:
 Motion Detection
 I/O Alarm
