Global Options
The Global Options section allows setting the preferred FTP server, which can be
used by the profiles below. The settings comprise the name of the FTP server, the
authentication data (user name and password) and the connection type (
active
or
passive FTP
; with
passive FTP
for connections to the FTP server that are using a
router).
Every FTP Profile displays a sample file name in the Current Destination field at
the top to help you control the resulting folder and file names (especially when
using variables). After clicking on the Set button at the bottom of the dialog, this
field shows the folder and file names as they would be created using the parame-
ters you defined for the corresponding profile. Variables are also resolved using
their current value.
Profiles & Options
The dialog contains several sample FTP profiles and those defined using the Quick
Installation wizard; you change these profiles or add new ones by clicking on Add
new profile at the bottom of the dialog.
Enter the profile name in the FTP Profile n field (where n is the current number of
the profile). Remember to enter a descriptive name as this name is later displayed
in other dialogs.
• Current Destination: Displays the full file name as it would be created using
the Directory Name and File Name parameters defined in this profile. After
clicking on the Set button at the bottom of the dialog, the name will be cre-
ated according to these settings.
When using placeholders and variables, you can create dynamic directory
and file names. This allows creating a folder structure using the year, name
of the month, the time, and other information. For more information on vari-
ables, see the
Using Variables
topic in the camera help and the reference
manual.
• File Type: Sets the type of data that will be transferred to the FTP server:
-
Image from image profile
: Select the
Live or Event image
option or one of
the image profiles (see section 7.8.7,
Image Profiles
) from the Image Pro-
file list.
-
MxPEG or JPEG clip
: Select
MxPEG clip file
to transfer an MxPEG video and
audio clip or
Clip as JPEG file(s)
from the Clip File Type list. Set the remain-
ing parameters as required (clip frame rate as well as the time before
and after the event you would like to include in the clip).
