name" and "Primary FTP password". "Primary FTP remote folder" is the relative
sub-folder in the remote FTP server. If the port of the remote FTP server is changed other
than 21, set the real port to “Primary FTP server port”. If the local network is

In either e-mail or FTP, the primary server information should be entered first. If the
primary server is not set, the related FTP or email will be cancelled. Note that it may take
time to connect to the secondary server after the first one fails and it may affect some
applications when conditions happen too often.
