FTP Download
The unit can archive images to a central FTP (File Transfer Protocol) server. This could be on receipt
of an alarm, activation of the Activity Detection or at a scheduled time to backup recorded video. Using
FTP in a multi-unit application ensures that all files are stored in one central location for each of the units,
offering efficient file management and easy review capabilities.
