specific to this task. This FTP client is specifically for intranet use but will work over a wide area network
(global internet). If you have internet access you can run the
web browser
ftp manager.
The functions of the program are as follows:
1
Connection information. The
Server IP
is the address of the recorder. You can get this from the

button on the setup menu. Note: If you are using the world wide web you will need to know
the real address of your firewall/router which needs to be set up for port forwarding to the recorder IP
address. You also need the
User Name
and
Password
. The program remembers User Names and IP
addresses and you can use the drop down menu to select previous entries. Once set up you need to
connect to establish a link to the recorder. See 5 below
