5.5.6 ALARM/FTP
You can define an upload directory for your camera under FTP Folder. The root folder
of the FTP server can be reached by "./". The separator for the folders is the forward slash.
A subfolder (e.g. INSTAR) can be reached by "./INSTAR". An ending forward slash is not
obligatory, but can be used.
The FTP Username and FTP Password are the login credentials for your FTP account.
For the FTP Mode you can choose between a passive (PASV) and an active mode
(PORT). The default is the active PORT mode. If your server is installed behind a router
with an active network address translation (NAT), or if a firewall is blocking the server's
network from an external access by your camera, you should choose the PASV mode.
The name of the video file is fixed and corresponds to the following syntax: rec011_
YYYYMMDDhhmmss.asf. The first part show the channel 11 for recording. Separated
by an underscore it shows the timestamp, which marks the time of the motion detection.
Please refer to our website for information on how to set up a FTP server.
5.5.7 ALARM/AUDIO ALARM
After activating the FTP upload function (s.5.5.2 Ac-
tions), you have to set your ftp server address and
login credentials. You can for example use your routers
FTP service as FTP Server - in this case simply put in
your router's IP as the FTP Server address. If you set up
a FTP server on a local PC (for example with Filezilla
Server), use the PC's local IP address. You can use a
webservers URL's as well. The standard FTP port is 21.
The camera can also detect loud noises and cause an
alarm. Therefore, simply enable the audio alarm and
set the sensitivity for the volume that needs to be
reached in order to trigger an alarm.
1 = not sensitive
10 = very sensitive
