Common Questions

Camera Offline Alerts to Telegram — FAQ

How long until I know a camera is offline?

Most NVRs detect disconnection within 30–60 seconds and send an email immediately. You'll see the alert in Telegram within another 5–15 seconds.

What causes a camera to go offline?

Power outage, unplugged PoE cable, switch failure, firmware crash, or someone tampering with the camera. All of these are critical to catch fast.

Can I get a daily 'still online' heartbeat?

Yes — most NVRs let you schedule a daily 'system status' email. Forward it to your TelegramEmailBot for a daily uptime confirmation.

Will I be alerted when it comes back online?

Yes, most NVRs send a separate 'camera back online' email when reconnection is detected.
