FTP server
Enter the IP address or DNS name of the FTP server, and the FTP port in the “Port”
field (standard = Port 21).
Enter the Username for access to the FTP user account, the password and the path
of the server directory.
Select whether the transfer is to be in “Passive mode” or “Active mode”.
In “Active mode”, the client opens a random port and gives the server the port
number and its own IP address. In this mode, it is possible for the server and client
to communicate with each other during the data transfer process.
In “Passive mode”, the client sends a command, and the server opens a port and
sends the client the port number and the IP address. This technique is used when
the server fails to achieve a connection with the client.
Test FTP connection/Settings
Pressing the “Test FTP” button initiates a connection test. A symbol near the button
shows whether this test has been successful (green) or not (red). During the test a
test file is sent to the FTP server; this will be deleted following successful transfer.
To save the settings permanently, click on the “Apply” button.
