Protecting the Device against any Unauthorized Access
You also have the possibility of protecting the Convision V6xx A against unauthorized
access in general. For this purpose, enter a password in the "User password" area
and confirm it. Then activate the "Protect Convision V6xx A against unauthorized
access" checkbox.
Now a prompt to enter the user password will be displayed upon any access to the
Convision V6xx A. A user with the login name “user” cannot access the
"Configuration", "Frame Buffer" and "Hard disk" menus, provided these have been
password-protected.
The login name for the user section is “user” and cannot be changed.
9.1.9 Setting the Time and Date
The date and time are set upon delivery of the Convision V6xx A. If these settings
are not correct due to different time zones, you can change them via this menu item.
Save the data.
These two settings are constantly updated even without an external power supply via
a backup battery.
Your Convision V6xx A can automatically change from summer to winter time. The
time conversion is done in MESZ (Middle European Summer Time) and is already
configured for the next few years. If you do not require this, simply delete the
preconfigured time.
9.1.10 Activating the FTP Server
Use this menu to activate the Convision V6xx A as an FTP server. When this option
is activated, the camera images can be downloaded using either HTTP (Hypertext
Transfer Protocol) or FTP (File Transfer Protocol).
After changes to these data, you have to reboot your Convision V6xx A.
Permitting Anonymous FTP Access
If the Convision V6xx A is protected in that the various security levels have been
activated (refer to Chapter 9.1.8), it will not be possible to access it via FTP without
entering a login name and password.
You then have to use the following URL to access the Convision V6xx A:
ftp://login_name:password@IP-address/....
The login name is either "admin" or "user" and the password is the one assigned in
the security settings. Once the page has been opened, the password is no longer
displayed in the address line.
