Direct File Access Updating
Direct File Access (enabled in “Web” screen within Firefly System Settings) can be used to update the Firefly directly with an FTP client. Programs such as FlashFXP (see description below) may be used.
Figure 1. Example of Direct File Access Using FlashFXP
Direct File Access is a powerful way to work with your Firefly. Using a program such as FlashFXP, your PC hard drive or computer network will appear on the left pane with the Firefly appearing on the right.
WARNING
The File Access feature is disabled by default because of an inherent security risk. By enabling File Access, you are opening the FTP port, which opens your Firefly up to potential unauthorized access via a network, such as the internet. Understand that all security provisions must be provided by your network. Firefly does not include any special security measures for this feature.
