Explanation
You can save the screen image data, waveform data, and setup data to network drives
via the Ethernet network in the same fashion as with the PC card interface.
If you want to make the SL1400 the FTP server and access the SL1400 from an FTP
client on the network, see section 15.6.
FTP Server
Enter the IP address of the FTP server (the PC or workstation running the FTP server)
on the network to which waveform and setup data will be saved. On networks supporting
DNS, you can specify the host and domain by name instead of the IP address.
Login Name
Enter the login name using up to 15 characters. The default setting is “anonymous.”
The characters that can be used are all the ASCII characters on the keyboard.
Password
Enter the password corresponding to the login name using up to 15 characters.
The characters that can be used are all the ASCII characters on the keyboard.
Time Out
When an FTP server is accessed from the SL1400 and data is not transmitted for a
certain period of time (timeout time), the SL1400 decides that the transmission to the
FTP server is not possible and closes the connection. You can set the timeout value in
the range of 0 to 3600 s. The default setting is 15 s.
