A Note About Posting Interval Considerations
When specifying a posting interval, be sure to consider the size of the alerts that include pictures relative
to how much memory is available on the device. In general, devices are configured to send a subset of
their picture data to InfraStruXure Central at the time of the alert and then have InfraStruXure Central
retrieve the rest of the pictures later. In Post Only mode, the next opportunity for InfraStruXure Central to
retrieve the remaining pictures will be at the next post interval. However, depending on device model, the
number of pictures that are currently stored on the device, and the occurrence of subsequent alerts, there
is a possibility the pictures could be gone by the time the next post occurs.
