Using FTP Commands to Operate the DS-L1
You can run FTP commands on your PC to get images from the DS-L1.
NOTE: Always be sure to consult the network administrator in your organization
before executing FTP commands. Your organization’s network may have
been set up in a unique manner, so invalid operations might cause a
problem on your network.
4.4.1 Using FTP Commands to Get DS-L1 Image Files from a PC
1) Enter the IP address of the DS-L1 from the MS-DOS prompt (command prompt) of
Windows to connect to the DS-L1.
(Example: FTP 192.168.10.2)
2) Execute the Is command to search for a directory named RAMIBOX.
3) Execute the cd RAMIBOX command.
The following virtual file names will be displayed:
• IMG***.bmp
• IMG***.jpg
Here, *** represents dimensional values such as 1680 or 1280 indicating image size.
The time of day for the files displayed at this time is 0 hours 0 minutes. The actually
acquired files are given the time of day when you issued the Get command.
4) Execute the Get command for one of the files, and the latest image that is in the DS-L1 at
that point will be downloaded to the PC.
A detailed command list is available from Nikon. If you wish to have one, please
contact your nearest Nikon representative.
NOTE: If frequent access is made to the DS-L1 connected to a Windows PC via a
USB cable, image file acquisition may fail. If this happens, stop accessing
the DS-L1 via a USB cable for a while.
