Upload Servers
Clicking this link will open the list of FTP servers currently configured in the server. The
listing shows the name and address of the server, as well as the upload path and user name.
Adding an Upload Server
Click the Add button. This opens the Upload Server Setup dialog. The following
information should then be provided for the new server.
• Name - This can be any descriptive name you like.
• Network address - Enter the IP address or host name of the server. To use a host name, a
DNS server must be specified in the TCP/IP network settings.
• Upload path - Specify the path to the directory where the uploaded images will be stored.
If this directory does not already exist on the ftp server, there will be an error message
when uploading.
• Additional information - In this field you can add extra information about the server. For
example, if the saved video files can also be accessed via a UNC address (e.g.
\\video\file1.mpeg), then you could add text providing this address. This information will
be included in email sent by events that use this server.
• The user name and password you use to log on to the server.
When finished, you can test the setup by clicking the Connect button. The results of the
connection test will then be displayed in a message box.
Please keep in mind that the output port can be controlled by more than one event type. This may mean
that the port is the “wrong” state if one or more event types that activate the port are triggered one
after the other. Using more than one event type to control the output is not recommended.
