How to snap photos at a given time and email?

[TommyE]

Hello

I want to take a snapshot at 12:00 everyday and then email that photo out to a couple of users.
I do not want it triggered by movement, just take a simple snapshot of whatever may be in the cameras view and email at a give time.

Is this somehow possible?

Best regards
Tommy

Yes, it is.
This can be done per camera by scheduling a Trigger at specific times.
To keep the Alerts separate from your main camera's Alerts, define a clone of the camera, and perform the following on the clone...

In the camera clone settings/Schedule tab...
1. Click 'Event schedule'.
2. Click 'Enable'.
3. Click 'Add'.
4. Set the time.
5. Click the drop-down for 'Function', and select 'Trigger'.
6. In the clones Trigger tab, Untick 'Motion sensor' & 'Capture an alert list image'.
7. In the Alerts tab, under 'Actions', click 'On Alert', and add 'Send email', and/or 'Send SMS'. Define as many as you want.
