Using VBCollector

Note

● If using Windows 2000 or Windows XP, operate VBCollector with an authority greater than PowerUser.

●NTFS is recommended for such file systems containing the installation folder and the folder where images are saved.

●When using NTFS in the file system, set to permit reading and writing of the installation folder and the folder where images are saved. Functionality is limited if you do not have authority.

Downloading images to a shared folder on the network

Tip ● You cannot specify a path name that uses a network drive in the “Image Directory” setting. Use UNC notation to specify the path name.

\\PC name\shared directory name[\path] Eg) \\Server\Share\path

●Set the folder access privileges for the “Image Directory” folder so that read/write operations can be performed from machines with VBCollector installed.

●In case of using VBCollector in Windows 2000/XP, make the logon account setting for VBCollector task scheduler service in the following procedure (→ P.6-30)

1.Choose “Options” from the “Tools” menu bar.

2.Select [Specify an account for downloading] under [Details] in the option dialog.

3.Enter your user name and password.

4.Click the “OK” button.

*Specify an account from which you can log on to the download destination machine.

*Set the folder access privileges so that read and write operations can be performed from the download execution account to the folder in which VBCollector is installed (the default setting is C:\ProgramFiles\Canon\WebView\VB\VBCollector\2.1).
