will not be generated until 30 seconds has elapsed. To ensure that

Capture Time multiplied by the Maximum Rate. If the total number
of post-alert image captures and pre-alert image captures is larger
than the Maximum Camera Pictures setting for an alert action, the
most recent images captured are given preference and included in
the alert notification.

captures is larger than the Maximum Camera Pictures setting for an
alert action, the most recent images captured are given preference
