Administrators can configure the camera to send messages to one or two specific File Transfer
Protocol (FTP) sites when an alarm is triggered. For FTP server details, contact your network
administrator or network service provider, or install FTP software on a PC on the same
network as the camera.
To configure FTP settings
1
On the System tab, click FTP in the menu on the left.
2
Enter the following FTP details:
- Server (IP address or host name)
- Server port (21 is the default port for FTP servers)
- User name (from the account created on the FTP server)
- Password
- Remote folder
Note: Do not enter the complete FTP path into the remote folder field. For example, if
the remote folder is
C:\FTP\example\
and the FTP path is
C:\FTP\
, then only the word
‘example’ should be entered.
3
Enable the 1st FTP passive mode or the 2nd FTP passive mode or both, if necessary.
In passive mode, the relevant FTP server initiates a connection with the FTP client by
sending its IP address through a dynamic port. In active mode, the FTP client initiates
the connection.
4
Press Save when finished.
