Warning: Before disconnecting or powering off any remote server where the
webcam snapshots are being stored, you must first change the storage settings, or
the connectivity issue of the remote server may degrade the performance of the
PRO4X web interface. If this issue occurs, first restore the connectivity of the
remote server and then change the storage settings of the webcam snapshots.

Tip for notifications showing the snapshots path on FTP:
If you are using SNMP to retrieve data, you can make PRO4X automatically send a notification
containing the full path or URL to the snapshots saved onto FTP with this SNMP code:
webcamStorageUploadStarted.
Identifying Snapshots Folders on Remote Servers
If saving snapshots onto a remote server, you can access those snapshots via an appropriate third-party
application, such as an FTP client.
All snapshots are saved as JPEG and named according to the date and time when saving the snapshots.
Note that the date and time of the filename are based on the time zone of the PRO4X rather than that
of the computer or mobile device you are operating.
Tip: To check the time zone, choose Device Settings > Date/Time.
