AXIS 2100 User’s Guide Choosing Your Application

Sequentially Uploading Images to a Remote FTP Server

Ideal for busy Web sites on both large corporate networks, and SOHO (Small-Office

Home-Office) applications where a small network is installed and maintained; this

application uploads images to a designated FTP server on your network, and is perfect for

applications where a large audience is expected.

Simply install the AXIS 2100 directly on your local Ethernet network and complete the

Installation and Application Wizards to develop an active application that will upload

images to a designated FTP server - as a sequential stream that is unlimited or restricted to

specified time periods. You can organize the times and the frequency at which images are

taken and uploaded to the target FTP server. You can also decide to send images

sequentially via e-mail messages.

Installation and Configuration Overview

Configure the AXIS 2100 to actively upload images to an FTP server as follows:

Note: You can refine your application using the Web-based Administration Tools.

1. Connect the AXIS 2100 to your local network. Refer to Installing Your Camera on a Network, on page 11.

2. Open the Home Page in your browser and start the Installation Wizard. Complete the Wizard to establish the standard

Security, Date and Time, Image General Layout and TCP/IP Network settings - selecting Network as your chosen method of

connection in the Modem or Network dialog. Refer to Configuring Your Camera, on page 20.

3. Continue the configuration of your product using the Application Wizard to define the target FTP server and your preferred

mode of operation - choosing Sequential mode to create your active application.

4. Having completed the Wizard, you should now verify the configuration by accessing the images stored on the FTP sever from

your browser.
