Simply install the AXIS 2120 directly on your local Ethernet network and complete the Installation and Application Wizards to develop an active application that will upload images to a designated FTP server - as a sequential stream that is unlimited, or at specified time periods. Then organize the times and the frequency at which your images are taken and uploaded to the target FTP server.

Installation and Configuration Overview

Configure the AXIS 2120 to actively upload images to an FTP server as follows:

1.Connect the AXIS 2120 to your local network. Refer to Installing Your Camera on a Network on page 12.

2.Open the product Home Page in your browser and start the Installation Wizard. Complete the Wizard to establish the standard Security, Date and Time, Image General Layout and TCP/IP Network settings - selecting network as your chosen method of connection in the Modem or Network dialog. Refer to Configuring Your Camera on page 21.

3.Continue the configuration of your product using the Application Wizard to define the target FTP server and your preferred mode of operation - choosing Sequential mode to create your active application.

4.Having completed the Wizard, you should now verify the configuration by accessing the images stored on the FTP sever from your browser.
