Abstract
A monitoring apparatus receives information about a storage condition of monitoring data from a management apparatus via a network, and acquires at least one of image data and audio data as the monitoring data. The monitoring apparatus detects a communication state with the management apparatus, and performs control to store the monitoring data which is determined to satisfy the storage condition into a storage device that is other than the management apparatus according to the detected communication state.
Claims13
A monitoring apparatus that acquires at least one of image data and audio data as monitoring data, the monitoring apparatus comprising:
- a reception unit configured to receive information about a storage condition of the monitoring data from a management apparatus via a network;
- a detection unit configured to detect a communication state with the management apparatus;
- and
- a control unit configured to perform control to store the monitoring data which is determined to satisfy the storage condition into a storage device that is other than the management apparatus according to the communication state detected by the detection unit.
A method for storing at least one of image data and audio data as monitoring data, the method comprising:
- transferring information about a storage condition of the monitoring data from a management apparatus to a monitoring apparatus via a network;
- detecting a communication state between the management apparatus and the monitoring apparatus;
- and
- performing control to store the monitoring data which is determined to satisfy the storage condition into a storage device that is other than the management apparatus according to the detected communication state.
A storage medium storing computer-executable instructions executed by a computer which acquires at least one of image data and audio data as monitoring data, the storage medium comprising:
- computer-executable instructions for receiving information about a storage condition of the monitoring data from a management apparatus via a network;
- computer-executable instructions for detecting a communication state with the management apparatus;
- and
- computer-executable instructions for performing control to store the monitoring data which is determined to satisfy the storage condition in a storage device that is other than the management apparatus according to the detected communication state.
