Sequentially Uploading Images to a Remote FTP Server

Ideal for busy Web sites on both large corporate networks, and SOHO (Small-Office Home-Office) applications where a small network is installed and maintained; this application uploads images to a designated FTP server on your network, and is perfect for applications where a large audience is expected.

Simply install the AXIS 2100 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 restricted to specified time periods. You can organize the times and the frequency at which images are taken and uploaded to the target FTP server. You can also decide to send images sequentially via e-mail messages.

Installation and Configuration Overview

Configure the AXIS 2100 to actively upload images to an FTP server as follows:

1.Connect the AXIS 2100 to your local network. Refer to Installing Your Camera on a Network, on page 20.

2.Open the 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 35.

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.

Note: You can refine your application using the Web-based Administration Tools.
