Zmodem
Modem Connection
By connecting the AXIS 240 to a modem, it is possible to download
snapshot images to remote computers using standard modem
equipment.
Snapshot data and configuration data can be transferred over the serial
link using the zmodem protocol. This protocol is supported by most
UNIX and PC/Mac communications packages.
File Transfer
To initiate a file transfer, type the
sz command followed by the
filename of file you wish to transfer, as follows:
Many communication packages allow automatic download of
snapshot files, i.e. the program will detect the file transfer starting, and
then proceed to take care of it. However, should your
communications package not support this, you will need to manually
select 'receive zmodem' (or similar) from with the program.
The successfully transferred snapshot file is in JPEG compressed image
format, i.e. the downloaded file is an identical copy of a snapshot
representation held within your AXIS 240 file system.
Notes:
❏ Before files can be transferred from your AXIS 240, the host and
remote modems must be configured correctly. Refer to Appendix
E - The Auxiliary IO Port for further details.
❏ A typical zmodem session is displayed on page 99.
