4 Using the DS-L1 via a Network

Adding components

If Internet Information Service (IIS) does not have components added, you need to install them.

1)Open [Control Panel] and select [Add/Remove Programs] - [Add/Remove Windows Components].

2)Select Internet Information Service (IIS) and click the [Advanced] button.

3） Examine whether the [FTP (File Transfer Protocol) Services] check box is selected. If not, select it and click [OK]. After that, follow the installation instructions.

You will be requested for a Windows 2000 or XP CD-ROM during this course.

If you are using a preinstalled version, it should normally be copied to a location below the System directory on drive C. Thus, you only need to specify the directory that contains the required files in order to have them installed. If the files cannot be found, other folders will be searched.

Settings

All of the following items can be set from [Control Panel] – [Administrative Tools]– [Computer Management].

Adding a user

Create a new user account.

1)Select [Computer Management (Local)] – [System Tools] – [Local Users and Groups].

2)Right-click on [User] to select [New User].

3)Enter a user ID and a password. To ensure that the same information has been set for External Server in Network Settings of the DS-L1, enter the user ID and the password within ten alphanumeric characters in lower- or uppercase. Deselect [User must change password at next login] check box.

NOTE: You also can create accounts and set passwords from [Control Panel] – [Users and Passwords] (or [User Accounts] for XP).

Specifying the home directory and enabling write to it

Enable image files to be written from the DS-L1 to the PC by FTP.

1)Select [Computer Management (Local)] – [Services and Applications] – [Internet Information] – [FTP Sites].

2)Right-click [Preset FTP Sites] and select the [Home Directory] tab in the ensuing [Properties] dialog box.

3)In [Local Path] for [Directory at FTP Site], specify the home directory (or default home directory) to which image files are to be transferred. Also select the [Write] check box to enable writing to the home directory.

When image files are transferred, the FTP Dir. specified on the DS-L1 side is created at a location below this home directory, and the image files are saved in that directory.

Example: If the home directory is “C:\DSFTP” and the FTP Dir. specified on the DS-L1 side is “FTPIBOX,” then the FTP transfer directory is “C:\DSFTP\FTPIBOX\.”

NOTE: The contents described above can also be set form [Control Panel] – [Administrative Tools] – [Internet Information Services].
