other parties.
• Be aware that if encryption is disabled,
eavesdropping might be possible on
networks that are not secured against such
actions.
• If you cannot specify a value for

version older than  2.30 (not including  2.30),
"Motion"  will be selected.
• If "Max Resolution"  is set to "HD", and
"Video Quality"  is changed from
"Motion"  to "Sharpness" , the setting for
"Max Resolution"  is automatically
changed to  "Auto".
