Transferring Clips (Direct FTP Function)
You can transfer clips (MXF files) between this unit and
external devices over a network. This unit has an Direct
FTP function, which allows you to connect to any
XDCAM device or computer with an FTP server function
and transfer files with a few simple operations in the GUI
screen.
The following table lists the types of file transfers that this
unit can execute.
File transfers with this function are limited to clips (high-
resolution data) and clip list files. To transfer files of other
types (proxy AV data, files in the General and User Data
directories, and so on), operate after establishing a FAM or
FTP connection
Preparations for clip transfers
Check the following points.
• This unit must be connected over a network to the
transfer target device (XDCAM device or computer).
• The transfer target device (XDCAM device or
computer) must be supplied with stable power, and the
power must not be turned off during the transfer. For
battery powered devices, the batteries must have
sufficient remaining capacity.
• The settings under maintenance menu item M5:
NETWORK must be set to values that allow network
connections.
• The remote control switch must be set to NET.
• For XDCAM devices that support UPnP (universal plug
and play), the UPnP function must be enabled (the
setting may vary).
