(5) FTP Configuration
FTP Directory Configuration: In order to make use of the FTP transmission method, the administrator must define the FTP server address, FTP user account name, the FTP user password, and the FTP file path.
The ‘FTP server address’ is the address of the target FTP server that will hold the transferred images. This needs to be an IP address in the form xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx. Note that if the requested server is NOT on your local net, you must be sure you have properly identified the correct gateway address in the Network Configuration or the camera will be unable to move images outside of your local net to the target server.
The ‘FTP user account name’ must be used unless the FTP server permits anonymous logins. You should obtain this account name from the server’s administrator. This also applies for the ‘FTP user password.’
The ‘FTP file path’ may be required if you wish to store images on the FTP server at some level below the root or home directory where the camera logs into the server. For example, if you wish to store images in a subdirectory called ‘IMAGES,’ you should specify this name by keying in ‘/IMAGES.” The forward slash is important.
An administrator assigns an FTP server address, FTP user accounts, FTP user passwords, and FTP user paths to receive files when events occur.
FTP Event Configuration: The administrator may set sending conditions, image resolution, and filename in the same fashion as described above for
