Saving Data to an External Device

To Save Logged Image Files to a Computer (FTP)
The FTP is useful when you need to save logged image files to a computer.
For example, if you need to move logged images to a computer before the RAM disk or external memory device
becomes full, you can use the FTP to access the FH Controller through a browser and directly specify the files in
the RAM disk or an external memory device to move.
