Zmodem
Modem Connection
By connecting the AXIS 200 to a modem as detailed below, it is
possible to download snapshot images to remote computers using
standard modem equipment.
Configuration of the serial port for modem connection
Snapshot data and configuration data may be transferred over the
serial link using the zmodem protocol. This protocol is supported by
most UNIX and PC/Mac communications packages.
File Transfer
To initiate a file transfer, simply type the
sz
command followed by the
filename of file you wish to transfer, as follows:
Many communication packages allow automatic download of
snapshot files, i.e. the program will detect the file transfer starting, and
then proceed to take care of it. However, should your
communications package not support this, you will need to manually
select 'receive zmodem' (or similar) from with the program.
A successfully transferred snapshot file is in JPEG compressed image
format, which is precisely the same as if the picture were saved from
within a browser. Consequently, the downloaded file is an identical
copy of a snapshot representation held within your AXIS 200 file
system.
