Secondary Path/File
NetCam can optionally upload the image with a separate path and/or
lename from the Path/File above. This provides a very convenient way
to archive images on your server while still maintaining a statically named
live image. One way to do this is to include date/time markup characters
as part of the lename. The current upload time of the image will become
the lename.
For example, the lename %Y-%m%d-%H%M%S.jpg automatically
translates to 2006-04-15-153015.jpg if the date and time of the
upload is April 15, 2006 at 3:30:15 PM.
Tip: For a complete list of Date/Time markup characters, click the Help button on
the Overlay page.
Example Without Path:
netcam-%Y-%m%d-%H%M%S.jpg
Example With Path:
public_html/netcam-%Y-%m%d-%H%M%S.jpg
Only the characters beginning with the percentage symbol (%) are valid.
It not advisable to use date/time characters that insert / \ : or space
characters, as this can confuse the FTP/Web server.
Current IP Link Path/File
If NetCam is using an external modem to dial out to an ISP, NetCam will
most likely be assigned a different IP address every time it connects. This
makes it next to impossible to access the camera directly from a browser
since its IP address is not known. To eliminate this problem, NetCam can
upload a small web page every time an image is uploaded. The web page
contains the current IP address of the camera so you can congure the camera
remotely. Clear this eld if you don’t want this le to be uploaded.
Default: ip.html
Schedule
Scheduling tells NetCam when and how often to FTP images to your
server.
Delay
This tells NetCam to delay a specied number of seconds between
FTP image uploads. The speed at which NetCam can upload varies on the
image resolution, amount of JPEG compression, Internet connection and
network congestion.
