How to upload snapshots to your FTP sever?
You may follow the steps below to set up FTP:
Note: For uploading snapshots taken by smart functions (such as Face Capture, Cross Line and Intrusion, etc.), please refer to Smart FTP configuration.
General FTP configuration
- Click Setup > Storage > FTP > General.
- Set the IP address and port for the FTP server, username and password used to upload images to the FTP server, select Upload Images, Overwrite Storage and set Overwrite At (threshold for overwriting images). Then you may test FTP after completing FTP settings correctly.
