Can someone help with camera notifications please?

I searched the forum and found previous questions about this, but the solution link that was provided was a dead link.

 

I have an Insteon/ Foscam camera that has motion detection and I have it setup properly in the IP camera tool app but I never receive any notifications from it.

 

I'm trying to see if I can do better with my ISY setup, but not sure how to code this.  I don't see anything in my console to select any sort of motion detection, such as if detected, send notification to default email.    I currently just have a very basic setup for my camera with a state variable that once I leave the house turn the camera on, but can someone please help me to expand on that to say that if the camera is on and motion is detected, send an email?   Not seeing the option to do this or just don't know where or what to look for.  

 

Thanks;

Which model (e.g. 75790)?  What firmware?

 

TMK, the "Insteon" camera doesn't have any inherent "Insteon" functionality.    The configuration to have the camera send email when motion is detected is entirely done in the camera setup, not in ISY, and is covered in the documentation.

 

Some firmware in a few brands of IP cameras offer a "HTTP on alarm" setting which can be used to trigger an ISY event.

Ok, thanks KeviNH....I had assumed that all cameras, particularly those that I have setup through my ISY hub would be able to utilize the notifications option within the console.  I'll just have to troubleshoot the admin console of my camera itself to find out more about the notifications.

 

Its this camera that I have  http://www.smarthome.com/insteon-2864-222-wireless-hd-720p-ip-camera-with-pan-tilt-and-night-vision-white.html  and firmware is 

11.37.2.59.
