Configuring using FTP

The AXIS 700 configuration file includes all the system parameter
settings regarding network protocols, profiles, paper sizes and
destinations.

Follow these instructions to edit the configuration file using FTP:

Caution!

o Windows 95/98 has a directory called ‘config’ that contains

important system files. It is important to change to another
directory using the

cd

command before modifying your AXIS 700

configuration file from within a Windows 95/98 environment.
Failure to do this may result in some of your system files to be
overwritten.

1. In a DOS or UNIX window, type

ftp <IP address>

, where

<IP address>

is the name or IP address of your AXIS 700.

2. Login using the user id

root

and the password

pass

(or the new

one you have set).

3. Type

get config.ini

to download the configuration file to

your current directory.

4. Edit the file using your preferred text editor. In Windows 95/98

and Windows NT environments, you can for example use
Notepad.

Caution!

o Do not use MS Word or similar word processor.

5. Type

put config.ini

to download the file to the AXIS 700 and

save it permanently.

6. To exit FTP, type the command

quit

,

bye

, or

exit

.

Notes:

o The configuration file can be used as a template when configuring

multiple Network Scan Servers.

o It is sufficient to download the configuration parameters that have

changed. The other parameter settings will remain unchanged.

o Internet-related parameter settings cannot be changed using FTP.
