Connections: Connecting This Unit to a Network
• An error may be generated when network operations are
performed right after connecting a LAN cable or when a
previous operation was interrupted.
• Use PING to confirm when connection attempts repeatedly
end in an error. If PING fails, check if LAN settings and LAN
cable connections are correct and whether or not hubs or
routers in the path operate normally. If PING is successful,
check if server function services of the FTP server
operates, if there is not a firewall in path of the connection
and whether a user ID and password that permits access
to the FTP server has been set. Note that it may be possible
to connect using FTP even when PING fails.
• If the above checks do not enable connection, consult your
system administrator in charge of your network
environment.
◆
NOTE:
• Server operating specifications and access privileges may prevent
display of folder contents, the correct folder path, etc.
• The unit remembers the previous cursor location. However, an error
will reset it to the top level. And if a thumbnail has been displayed, it
will only remember the cursor location of a previously displayed
folder list.
Use the steps below to display thumbnails for clips on the FTP
server in the same way as clips on P2 cards.

NOTE:
• Pressing the SET button in the CONTENTS folder will not display
thumbnails. Be sure to press the SET button in folders above the

folders exist, the contents of the upper case folder is displayed.
• When there are folders with names in the upper case as and

may not be possible or error messages may be inappropriately
displayed.
