Identifying Snapshots Folders on Remote Servers
If saving snapshots onto a remote server, you can access those snapshots via an appropriate third-party
application, such as an FTP client.
All snapshots are saved as JPEG and named according to the date and time when saving the snapshots.
Note that the date and time of the filename are based on the time zone of the Legrand PDU device rather
than that of the computer or mobile device you are operating.
Tip: To check the time zone of your Legrand PDU, choose Device Settings > Date/Time. See Setting the
Date and Time (on page 182).
The structure of a snapshots folder looks similar to the diagram below.
Number Folder name description
User-defined parent directory, whose name depends your server
settings, such as your FTP configuration.
Serial number of your Legrand PDU device where the webcam
is connected. For example, PH85350018.
To find your Legrand PDU serial number, see Device
Information (on page 231).
The name of the webcam that Legrand PDU detects first.
This is the folder where the snapshots captured by the first
webcam are stored.
The first webcam's default name is "Webcam".
You can customize the webcam's name, which will change
the snapshots folder's name.
See Configuring Webcams and Viewing Live Images (on
page 248).
If the webca
m
's location is important, you can customize the
webcam's name based on its location when configuring
Legrand PDU to save snapshots onto a remote server.
The name of the webcam that Legrand PDU detects later, if an
additional webcam is connected.
This is the folder where the snapshots captured by the second
webcam are stored.
The second webcam's default name is "Webcam 2".
Changing this webcam's name also changes the second
snapshots folder's name.
If the webcam's location is important, you can customize the
webcam's name based on its location when configuring
Legrand PDU to save snapshots onto a remote server.
Note: It is suggested to customize a webcam's name "prior to" saving snapshots on the remote server. In
case you change the webcam's name after saving any snapshots, Legrand PDU will create a new folder with
the new webcam name while keeping the old folder with the old name.
