On home directory settings and the separation of save directories for each of multiple
users (DS-L1s)
When a user is added, a home directory is automatically created under the specified user
name and directory name at a location below [Macintosh HD] – [Users].
When image files are transferred, the FTP Dir. specified on the DS-L1 side is created at a
position below this home directory, and the image files are saved in that directory.
Example: If the user name is “DS1” and the FTP Dir. specified on the DS-L1 side is
“FTPIBOX,” then the FTP transfer directory is “C:\Users\DS1\FTPIBOX\.”
When accounts are added, separate directories are created for each user, so that even if
there are multiple users (DS-L1s) connected to the network, image files are saved in each
separate directory.
Access rights for the created folder are set so that only the user who created it can access
it with both read and write privileges; other users may access the folder only to read files.
Do not change the access rights for the created folder. Doing so may make it impossible to
transfer images to the folder or result in other users inadvertently deleting images.
