NetCam SC
IIS 4.0
Some FTP servers lock a file when a file with the same filename is
constantly uploaded and renamed. If you have problems seeing your image
update on your web site, try enabling the IIS 4.0 option. This option is only
valid if Delete Before Rename (above) is also enabled.
Default: Off
Secondary Path/File
NetCam SC can optionally upload the image with a separate path and/or
filename from the Path/File above. This provides a very convenient way
to archive images on your server while still maintaining a statically named
live image. One way to do this is to include date/time markup characters
as part of the filename. The current upload time of the image will become
the filename.
For example, the filename
%Y-%m%d-%H%M%S.jpg
automatically
translates to
2007-11-01-153015.jpg
if the date and time of the
upload is November 1, 2007 at 3:30:15 PM.
Tip:
For a complete list of Date/Time markup characters, click the Help button on
the Overlay page.
Example Without Path:
netcam-%Y-%m%d-%H%M%S.jpg
Example With Path:
public_html/netcam-%Y-%m%d-%H%M%S.jpg
Only the characters beginning with the percentage symbol (
%
) are valid.
It not advisable to use date/time characters that insert
/ \ :
or space
characters, as this can confuse the FTP/Web server.
Current IP Link Path/File
If NetCam SC is using an external modem to dial out to an ISP, it will
most likely be assigned a different IP address every time it connects. This
makes it next to impossible to access the camera directly from a browser
since its IP address is not known. To eliminate this problem, the camera can
upload a small web page every time an image is uploaded. The web page
contains the current IP address of the camera so you can configure the camera
remotely. Clear this field if you don’t want this file to be uploaded.
Default:
ip.html
