PUSH MODE / PULL MODE

Configuring the FTP Server

The following covers the configuration process for the FTP server. This process

applies whether you are running FTP server software on a PC on a network or

have a dedicated FTP server.

1. The first step is to create the path and permissions to the directory which the

Hi-Def Digital Signage Media Player will be accessing. In our example from

the

settings.xml file, we specified the following:

In the example above, the IP address of the FTP server is

192.168.2.70.

2. Create a local directory structure on the FTP server. The directory structure

must be

identical to the directory structure on the USB drive.

The

settings.xml file must exist in the root directory, as shown below:

3. Configure the FTP server to point to the above directory structure. Only the

parent directory should be specified.

For example, if you create a parent directory called

/foo, the /media,

/playlists, and /schedules directory should reside under the /foo

directory.
