IP assignment
1 Key Words for Network

LAN (Local Area Network) : Under the LAN network, any network device in the same
LAN network can be accessed by any other network device. But LAN network can not be
accessed from the Internet (WAN).
Most of case, LAN is built after Router which is connected to WAN network so that
Network device in the local area network can access to the Internet through Router. Most
of case, LAN networked device can not be accessed from the Internet (WAN), unless it is
not configured to be accessed from the Internet through NAT function of router.
WAN (Wide Area Network) : WAN enables all network device can be accessed by each
other over the Internet. It included Leased Line, Cable modem, xDSL, ISDN and
Telephone line etc.
IP address : IP address is abbreviation of Internet Protocol address which allows all

network devices can communicate other over the network using Internet protocol. Each
network device has its own unit IP address whether or not it is in the LAN or WAN
network. Therefore network devices can be accessed by other network device from either
LAN or WAN (Internet).
For example, www.yahoo.com is a web server which has its own IP address so that any
body can has access to Yahoo web site. Like most of public web site has its own IP
address. Although IP address can not be seen by the client, domain name
(www.yahoo.com) is automatically converted into IP address by DNS server.
Static IP address : A static IP address is an IP address permanently assigned to

computer or network devices in a TCP/IP network. Static IP address is usually assigned
to network devices which are consistently accessed by any users. For instances,
www.yahoo.com has global static IP address. Thus, any body can access to the site. If
you want to view live video stream from FlexWATCHTM server over the Internet, you need
to assign Global Static IP address.
Depending the network Public Static IP(WAN) or Private Static IP can be assigned to
network device.
Dynamic IP address : A dynamic IP address is an IP address that is automatically

assigned to a client station (computer, network equipment, etc.) in a TCP/IP network.

Dynamic IP address is typically assigned by a DHCP server, which can be a computer on
the network or another piece of hardware, such as router. A dynamic IP address may
change every time your computer connects to the network
DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol) : DHCP is software that automatically

assigns IP addresses to client stations logging onto a TCP/IP network. DCHP eliminates
troublesome job to manually assign permanent IP addresses to every device on your
network. DHCP software typically runs in servers and is also found in network devices
such as routers. Most of Cable Modem for Internet access uses DHCP Public IP address
and Private IP address : Public IP address is an IP address which can be identified
uniquely in Internet world. All IP addresses excluding private IP addresses are public IP
addresses. Private IP addresses range from 10.0.0.0 until 10.255.255.255, and from
192.168.0.0 to 192.168.255.255. Generally speaking, private IP addresses are used in
local area network which are hidden from the Internet world. Also, when public IP
addresses not enough, private IP addresses are used while sharing global IP addresses
Router : Router is a network hardware which routes either Private or Public IP address
to Public network so that network device between private IP network and Public IP
network can communicate over the network. Router has NAT (Network Address
Translation) function and through this function Public IP address will be mapped into
private IP network so that Network device in the private IP address can be added from
Internet.
Hub : Hub is a hardware which relay transmission between Router and Network device.
There are two types of Hub. One is Dummy hub and the other one is Switching hub. Note
that Hub will be used in the local network only.
NAT (Network Address Translation) : Network Address Translation (NAT) translates

multiple IP addressed on the private LAN to one public address that is sent out to the
Internet. This adds a level of security since the address of a PC connected to the private
LAN is never transmitted on the Internet.

AOIP (Always On Internet Protocol) Server: AOIP™ server (Always On IP) is run by
Seyeon Technology or its business partner and is a gateway for remote users to access
FlexWATCH™ servers which is connected dynamic IP address over DSL,Cable modem and
PSTN network over the Internet. FlexWATCH™ Network Video Server and Camera Server
family is fully supported by AOIP server and any type of IP address(Global Dynamic IP or
Private IP) can be assigned to FlexWATCHTM server and user can access FlexWATCH™
system from the Internet at anytime and anywhere through AOIP server.
2 Check Points before IP assignment

Following are list of item to be checked before you start configuration of
FlexWATCHTM server.
2.1 IP address
You need to have Static IP address and other information such as Default Gateway and
Network Mask which are to be assigned to FlexWATCHTM server. Please consult with your
network administrator, if FlexWATCHTM server is to be installed in your corporate network,
or consult with ISP if you want to install it in your home or shop for which DSL or Cable
modem Internet service is available.
Following could be a simple way of finding IP address information of your PC and with
that information you can set up IP address to FlexWATCHTM server in the private IP
network without consulting to your ISP.
- Open DOS Command window as following procedure.

Program> Accessories > DOS Prompt
- Enter ‘ ipconfig’ command. Following information will come up
2.1.1 Static IP address enabled PC (DHCP Disabled PC)

You can easily check whether Static IP address is assigned to your PC. If you are in the
Static IP network, it is simpler to assign IP address to FlexWATCHTM server than DHCP
network.

C:\> ipconfig
Windows 2000/XP IP Configuration

IP Address. . . . . . . . . . . . : 192.168.0.158
Subnet Mask . . . . . . . . . . . : 255.255.255.0
Default Gateway . . . . . . . . . : 192.168.0.1
C:\>
With above info, you can get information about your network from your PC and see which
IP class of IP address should be assigned to FlexWATCHTM server.
Note that the same class, but different IP address appeared in your PC must be used for
FlexWATCHTM server to assign an IP address from your PC keeping Subnet mask & default
gateway as same that of your PC.
For example, 192.168.0.155 or other available IP address except 192.168.0.158 can be

assigned to FlexWATCHTM server, since it is the same class of your IP address and can be
communicated in your local network.
If you want to check out whether 192.168.0.155 is available. Please try ping command in
the DOS window. If there is any response, it means 192.168.0.155 is assigned to other
network device. Thus, you need to randomly select other IP address and try ping test or
consult with your network administrator
C:\> ping 192.168.0.155

Pinging 192.168.0.155 with 32 bytes of data:
Reply from 192.168.0.155: bytes=32 time=10ms TTL=128
Reply from 192.168.0.155: bytes=32 time<10ms TTL=128

2.1.2 DHCP Enabled PC
If your PC is set to use DHCP, you need to check out IP address of your PC using
‘ ipconfig’ command at DOS Prompt window.
You need to get IP address from your network administrator to assign it to FlexWATCHTM
server. IP address should be Surplus of IP address which will be not randomly assigned to
any network device in your network.
Your network administrator must make sure that IP address should be excluded from IP
pool when he configure Router.

6 Tx Module Registration(NVCP)
Notice
- If you do not connect FlexWATCHTM server to NDVR server, do not set TX module
configuration
- Once Tx Module configuration is done, set up RX module configuration in the
NDVR server as well
Video proxy function is supported by NDVR server such as FW-5440 and FW-5000 server.
By registering FlexWATCHTM video server into NDVR server, live video can be recorded in
the NDVR server and live view can be accessed through NDVR server web page which
means user does not need to separately run web browser to view respective cameras
from FlexWATCHTM video servers.
TX module registration is to set up the FlexWATCHTM server to communicate with FW-

5440 or FW-5000 NDVR server or FW-VSS Proxy Server only. When TX module is enabled
at the FlexWATCHTM server, RX module at NDVR server side should also be enabled as
well.
Two different modes are provided as a connection type. One is Passive and the other is
Active mode. Depending on which device tries to establish the connection to the other
party, the connection type will be decided.
Passive mode : NDVR server tries to establish connection to FlexWATCHTM server
Active Mode : FlexWATCHTM server tries to establish connection to NDVR server
Once connection type is decided in the FlexWATCHTM server, the connection type in the
NDVR server should be opposite so that it can communicate with FlexWATCHTM server.
For example, once Passive mode is set up in the FlexWATCHTM server, Active mode must
be set in the NDVR server.
1) Click TX Module registration menu in the System configuration mode of Admin

window.
2) Type in NVCP Password in the NVCP Password configuration filed.

Notice
NVCP Password is security feature which authenticate server access by RX
module (FW-5440 or 5000 NDVR server) to FlexWATCHTM server. Once NVCP Password
is configured, that password must be set up in the NDVR server to get video from
FlexWATCHTM server. Thus, you must make a note of NVCP password.
3) Select TX Module. By configuring TX module, you can program the server to

communicate with different NVR servers. Up to16 different NDVR servers can
simultaneously work with FlexWATCHTM server.
4) Select Passive or Active Mode depends on the network situation with NDVR server.
5) Once Active mode is selected, type in IP address of NDVR server.
Note
NVCP port should be open to communicate with NDVR Server, when the FlexWATCHTM
server is programmed to communication with NDVR server

Following is recommended setting guide for TX and RX module for FlexWATCHTM server
and NDVR depending on the network environment

Network Configuration
Network configuration mode provides interface for the server to be connected to
broadband network or PSTN line. In addition to basic network, application port such as
HTTP, NVCP, Voice port configuration and IP filtering options are provided.
1 Network configuration
You can change IP address of server through LAN configuration mode.
1.1 Static IP
Select this to assign static IP in the server. Subnet mask, Default Gateway information
must comply with the network where server is installed. Otherwise, server cannot be
connected through network.
1.2 DHCP Client

This setting is recommended when the server is installed under DHCP environment in the
LAN or Cable modem, xDSL Modem which provides PPPOA type service.
We recommend you to use DHCP option when the server is directly connected to Cable
modem only.
1.2.1 How to access the server under DHCP environment

Once DHCP is enabled, there is no way for the user to know which IP is assigned to the
server from the server web page. Following is guide how to get to know IP address of the
server.

Once DHCP is enabled, there is not other setting to be changed in the network works
configuration except DNS info, if required.
2.1.1.1 IP notification by E-mail service

You can receive IP address of the server through e-mail from the server, when the server
is connected to DHCP server. Please do not enable DHCP client feature till you open
a way to receive or get IP address of server.
1) Check whether you are in the DHCP environment before starting set-up.
2) Go to [Network Status Notify] menu in the network configuration mode
3) Set up e-mail account through which you would like to get IP address information
when the server is set up DHCP Client.
4) Now go to Network configuration mode and select DHCP option

* For more information about e-mail configuration, refer chapter for the e-mail
configuration in Advanced Service

2.1.1.1 Server access through AOIP server

Once Server is registered in the AOIP server and DHCP is enabled, you can access the
server through AOIP server. IP address of server can be found from AOIP server as well.
In this case you do not need to configure e-mail address setting to get IP address from
the server.
Please contact your local vendor or manufacture to get more information about AOIP
server which is an IP gateway for Dynamic IP user.
2 PPPoE Configuration
Some DSL or Cable Modem based ISP provides PPPoE based internet connection service.
If FlexWATCHTM server must directly be connected to the external DSL or Cable modem,
PPPoE option must be enabled.
Note that you must open a way to get IP address information, since there is no way you
can get to know IP address of the server through web browser when the server is set to
PPPoE network. The only way you can get IP address is through e-mail or AOIP server.
Please refer to above DHCP client part to set up e-mail and AOIP connection.
Please contact your local ISP to get User ID and Password for your Internet
connection.
Note
Once PPPoE is enabled, LAN network setting will be disabled.

3 Network port configuration

HTTP port, NVCP and VDCP ports are application port through which video and audio data
can be transmitted over the TCP/IP network.
3.1 HTTP port configuration

When you need to change Default HTTP Port (#80) to other port, you can change
HTTP port. This is very useful when more than one server should be installed behind a
router.
By assigning different HTTP port number for each server and configure port-forwarding
feature of Router, you can install more than one server behind the router.
For more information about this, please contact your local vendor.
3.2 NVCP –Tx Port

Tx port is a TCP port number through which FlexWATCHTM server can communicate with
other devices such as FW-5440 or FW-5000 NDVR servers. This port number is user
definable.
NVCP-Tx port must be opened when the FlexWATCHTM server transmits data through
Internet in a Passive way (When TX Module Registration is configured as PASSIVE
MODE). When NVCP port is to be used, you must open TCP port in the router as well.
3.3 VDCP Port configuration

VDCP port is UDP port for Voice Communication. By changing VDCP port (Default number
is 32001), you can install more than one Voice kit and Video server under the
router.
Note that when Voice Kit is connected to Internet, respective UDP port of the

router must be opened.
4 WAN Configuration and Application

Server is designed to make a call to ISP or can receive a call from outside so that server
can establish Internet connect to send FTP, e-mail or send video & data through PSTN
line or other medium. This is best alternative when the broadband Internet access is not
available.
4.1 External Modem connection

Modem has to be connected to AUX Port with RS-232 Serial Cable.
1) Connect your MODEM and AUX Port at FlexWATCHTM server with RS-232 Serial cable.
2) Go to Admin Menu >> System Configuration >> Serial Ports Configuration
3) Select ‘Modem’ at AUX mode and click ‘Apply’ button.
4) System reboot will be recommended, then click ‘Reboot’ button.
4.2 Application with Dial-in/out feature

4.2.1 Application with Dial-in
Dial-in is to allow server connection from remote client. This option is useful for the user
to connect the server at any time. Especially when the server sends e-mail notification
for the alarm and user want to check the situation.
4.2.2 Application with Dial-out

Server can establish the Internet connection through PSTN line and send FTP or e-mail
when the alarm condition is triggered by any event.

Following can be done through Dial-out function

• Pre/post alarm image sending through e-mail
• Pre/post alarm image sending to FTP server through FTP function
• Establish connection with AOIP server :
when the event is happened, server can send e-mail notification for the alarm and can
keep the connection with AOIP server, not terminating the connection with ISP.
Thus, you can quickly connect the server through AOIP server and view live video. The
key benefit of using AOIP connection is to view live video without making a separate call
to FlexWATCHTM server whenever there is alarm and you can easily access the server. If
you are running FW-Manager software, live video will be automatically display on the FW-
manager screen when there is any alarm.
4.3 Dial Out configuration

This is to set up the system to make a call to ISP when the dial out condition is activated
to transmit live video or send e-mail or FTP image.
4.3.1 Dial-up through Standard modem

Dial-out through standard PSTN modem is quite common and general.
1) Connect the server to PSTN line through RS-232 cable. Connect the cable to COM Port
or server. Use the standard D-Sub 9pin connector provided by PSTN modem.
2) Go to [WAN (PPP, Modem, etc)] menu in the Network configuration mode
3) Select “PPP client” option and fill out the option field.

PPP Client :
This means that FlexWATCHTM server act as client and call out to ISP.\
PPP Server :
This means that FlexWATCHTM server acts as a Server and receives a call from remote
user.
Tel#, User ID and User password :
ISP phone number and user account for Internet connection to ISP.
Default Route :
Enable this option. When Dial-out option is selected.
Note
If you use external modem, we recommend ‘3COM U.S.Robotics 56K’ external
modem for better performance, although FlexWATCHTM server is designed to flexibly work
with different external modem from different manufacturer. If you are to use different
external modem from different manufacturer, we recommend you to contact your
distributor or contact [email protected] to choose compatible modem.
4.3.2 Dial-Out through Media specific device

Dial-out can be done through specific media which is not standard PSTN such as CDMA
modem, GSM or GPRS Modem or any type of wireless modem.

This mode is not for general users. Thus, if you need to connect special modem device,
please contact your vendor or manufacturer for more information, [email protected]
4.4 Dial-in Configuration

Dial-in is to allow client PC to call into the server and get live video through PSTN line.
Overall configuration is very similar to that of Dial-out configuration. But much more
simple than Dial-out.
1) Go to [WAN (PPP, Modem, etc)] menu in the Network configuration mode.
2) Select “PPP Server”. This is to authenticate incoming call to server from remote client.
3) Check Authenticate more as none.
4) Configure User ID and Password, if you need to set up authenticate mode
5) Click [Apply] button and quit configuration menu.
Local IP address and Remote IP address

When remote client is connected to the server through modem connection, physical line
connection will be done. But no way to view live video unless client runs the web browser
of the FlexWATCHTM server.
Local IP address and Remote IP address is virtual IP address which is used at the time of

Modem connection only

Local IP address :
System default IP address (192.168.2.1) resides in the FlexWATCHTM server for modem
connection only. So when you connect the FlexWATCHTM server from remote PC using
dial-up networking and physical connection is made, you need to run your web browser
and enter this system default IP address(192.168.2.1) to view live video. You can
change this system default IP address as well. But it is recommended not to change
system default IP address for modem connection to prevent any possible error.
Remote IP address :
IP address which is automatically given to remote client PC by FlexWATCHTM server when
FlexWATCHTM server is connected by remote client PC using dial-up networking. This IP
address (192.168.2.2) is for data communication between FlexWATCHTM server and
Remote client PC. So you do not need to change this IP address. But if you change
default IP address of FlexWATCHTM server (192.168.2.1) for modem connection to
different class of IP address, you need to change remote IP address to the same class
of IP to match the IP class.
Note that when Local IP address is change, remote IP address should be

changed into the same class of the IP address.
5 Service Path
This is to specify service path through which server can send any information to target
device.
1) Go to Service path menu in the service configuration mode
2) Select “Modem”, if any data should be sent through PSTN or external modem device
and click “Apply” button.

LAN : This is default path the send any data to outside.

Modem : when PSTN or other medium than LAN is used to send data to outside. This
service port must be checked when any data is to be sent through PSTN or other medium
than LAN which is connected to COM port.
Note
Service path must be set up and checked before starting WAN configuration to send any
data through external PSTN modem connection or equivalent
If LAN is to be used, select “None(LAN)” option.
6 AOIP Setup
AOIP (Always-On-IP) is an IP gateway through which user can access the FlexWATCH™
server when it is connected to Dynamic IP address. Thus, if the server should be
connected to the Dynamic IP network and you want to view live video from anywhere, it
is the right solution for you.
6.1 How to use AOIP service

- Once things are set up, you can login to AOIP server and connect your

FlexWATCH™ server.
Note
AOIP is proprietary data service run by FlexWATCH™ or its business partners around the
world. Thus, depending on the country AOIP service can run by your local vendor or
master distributor or in some case, you need to user AOIP server run by manufacturer.
More detailed information about how to use can be acquired by contact your local
distributor or [email protected] .
6.2 AOIP configuration

As described above, once you register product in the AOIP server and Network setting is
correctly done to user AOIP function, you need to configure AOIP function in the
FlexWATCHTM server.
1) Check the “Enable” option to use AOIP function

2) Type in AOIP server address. Either Domain name or IP address can be typed in.
3) Select whether to use HTTP or NVCP-TX port. HTTP port must be selected to view
AOIP Server IP :
AOIP server IP is subject to change depending on where you are and who is your local
distributor, since AOIP server can be run by local distributor in some countries. If there is
no local AOIP service available, you can contact manufacturer to use. www.aoip.co.kr is
AOIP Service address run by manufacturer.
HTTP Port:
This is enable HTTP connects to AOIP server. You must select “Enable” option.
NVCP-TX Port:
NVCP-Tx Port should be enabled only when video is transmitter to NDVR server such as

Advanced Service configuration

Advanced service configuration is intended to provide more sophisticated functions which
are required by sophisticated users. Thus, if you are not familiar with or not good at
advanced features, we recommend you to read this guide carefully and consult with your
local vendor to get more close information about these features.
Advanced service can be categorized into Buffering service and None buffering
service depending on whether server stores pre/post alarm video in the system memory.
Buffering service means that the server can store pre/post alarm image in the system
memory and send stored image through FTP or e-mail or allow user to view stored image
inside of memory. With this feature user can get pre/post alarm image through e-mail or
FTP without missing any video before and after the event or playback stored Alarm
buffered image by connecting the server.
None buffering service means that Advance service will be done without image
buffering inside of the memory. FTP(Periodic), Sensor notification service and Alarm
output device control can be provided as a none buffering service option.
1 Buffering Service
Following services can be done by image buffering services.
e-mail : Up to 10 frame of Pre/post alarm image can be sent when there is event is
occurred.
FTP (Rising or Falling edge) : Up to 256 frames of pre/post alarm image per video
channel can be sent to ftp server when the event is occurred.
Alarm buffering service :
Pre configured number of Pre/post alarm image will be stored in the system memory and
user can playback stored image through web browser.
Steps to use Buffering service

Following is a step to configure and use Buffering services
A. System memory allocation : This is to allocated limited system memory for e-mail
& ftp and Alarm buffering service

B. Pre alarm buffer size : Once memory allocation is done, assign Pre alarm buffer
size (Pre alarm image buffer pool) to be used for e-mail, FTP and Alarm buffering
services. Any pre alarm buffer for respective e-mail, ftp and Alarm buffering services can
be done within Pre alarm buffer size.
C. Pre/Post alarm for respective service : Once Pre Alarm Buffer Size is decided, go
to respective e-mail, ftp and alarm buffering service menu and configure the options.
1.1 System and Pre Alarm Buffer memory

1.1.1 System Memory allocation
The number of Pre/Post alarm image for advanced services should be pre-defined to
effectively use the limited memory capacity.
Total Buffer size :

This shows the maxim system memory for alarm buffering services.
The number of maximum total buffer frame for respective services can be decided by
following formula
Total buffer size / file size = number of total buffer frame
e.g) 500 KB / 10KB = 500 frames which is possible total buffer size.
Total Pre-alarm Buffer size :

This is to assign memory space for the services that Pre Alarm video buffer is required
such as e-mail and FTP (Edge service) and Alarm buffering service. Once it is configured,
pre alarm buffer size for respective camera can be done within this assigned memory.
Note that Pre Alarm buffer for even Alarm buffering service can be done within this

memory size.
Thus, you need to be careful to assign memory for this service. The rest of memory after
setting up Alarm buffer service memory capacity will be assigned to this service
configuration
Alarm Buffering Service size :

To assign memory for Alarm buffering service to save pre/post alarm image in the
system memory so that user can playback stored video in the system through web
browser or download it. Note that Pre alarm buffer for Alarm buffering service can
be done within the Pre-alarm Buffer size. Thus, you need to count in required pre
alarm buffer for alarm buffering service and reserve enough space for this service in the
Pre-alarm Buffer size.
1.1.2 Pre alarm buffer size

Pre alarm buffer size (Image Buffer Pool) means the number of images to be stored
and continuously refreshed in the system memory.
Maximum Pre alarm buffer should be the half size of Memory capacity, since Pre
alarm images for e-mail, FTP or alarm buffering service are taken from Pre
alarm buffer pool and any Pre alarm image for these services require additional
memory space.
Pre-alarm Buffer size :

This is to assign pre-alarm image buffer for each camera. Once this is configured, the
maximum number of pre alarm for e-mail, ftp or Alarm buffering service (Pre alarm only)
can be done with this buffer size, if there is enough memory space for respective services.
Note that there must be enough memory space left for e-mail, ftp and Alarm Buffering

service (Pre alarm only), since respective service (e-mail, ftp or Alarm buffering service)
consumes separate memory in addition to pre alarm buffer size configured to make a real
service.
Delay between pre-alarm image :

This is the set up pre alarm speed when the server store image in the system memory.
1000mse is equal to 1sec and basic unit is 10msec. If you want to get 10fps pre-
alarm speed, 10 will be very appropriate number for Delay value.
* Maximum Pre alarm buffer should be the half size of Total Pre Alarm buffer
size memory assigned in the system, since Pre alarm images for e-mail, FTP or
alarm buffering service are taken from Pre alarm buffer pool and any Pre alarm
image for these services require additional memory space.
1) Go to Advance service mode in the Service configuration section

2) Go to “Buffering service” mode
3) Set up pre-alarm Buffer size and delay time.
4) Click “Buffer Calculator” button to run the calculator.
1.2 Buffer calculator

Through “Buffer Calculator” option, you can easily calculate assignable pre/post alarm
buffer size for each channel before setting up Pre/Post alarm buffer frame in the system
memory.
Following is logic for Pre/Post alarm assignment. By running buffer calculator you can try
pre/post alarm size.
Total buffer size 23500 kb

Total Pre-alarm buffer size (40%)
Alarm buffering service size (60%)
• Total Buffer size is variable depending on the memory used by the system

- Total number of Pre Alarm+ Post Alarm for FTP per channel < 256 frame.
- Total number of Pre + Post alarm for e-mail per channel <10 frames for
channel.
- Pre alarm frame for FTP & e-Mail and Alarm buffer service shall be done
within Total pre-alarm buffer size
- Post alarm for FTP & e-mail has nothing to do with Total buffer size.
- Post alarm for Alarm buffering service can be done within the Memory
allowed by Alarm buffering service size.
- The ratio of sum in the Buffer Calculator should be less than 100%.

2) Go to Buffering service mode
3) Click “Buffer Calculator” button to run the calculator
4) Pre configure pre/post alarm buffer for each service. This previous window can be
open till you manually disclose the Window. Thus, you can refer to this table when you
configure e-mail, ftp or Alarm buffering service configuration.

2 Service Condition
Sophisticated advanced services can be done by lots of serviced conditions provides by
the system. To correctly set up the system use must has good understanding about the
service condition as well.
e-mail, FTP, Sensor notification and Alarm output device control function requires service
condition set up to activate the function. Note that the basic logic for the service
condition set up is same for all of other options.
Condition Setup

event. No pre/post alarm image will be sent to FTP server.
4.1 Directory option

FlexWATCHTM server provides powerful directory options so that user can easily create
multiple ftp directory and send image into classified file directory as well.
Depends on the service type, Buffering and None buffering Service, its directory option is

slightly different.
4.1.1 Directory option for Buffered FTP
Buffered FTP means that only pre/post alarm buffered image will be sent to FTP server
when the ftp is triggered by the event.
FTP function of FlexWATCHTM server has two different level of directory and file name
option and following are details.
Base Directory Name :

Base directory is a path where ftped image will be saved in the FTP server. Directory name can be
made under "ROOT" or "Home" directory of FTP server.
If you select directory name in the option filed above, sub-directory will be created under
the Base Directory. If you do not select Directory option and select File Name option filed
only, file name will be created with combination of Base File Name in the Base Directory.
Base File name :

User defined prefix of file name of each image. File name of FTP images will

automatically be concatenated after prefix( Base File name ).

Directory name :
Multiple directories can be created in the Base directory so that ftp image can be stored
in a classified directory.
Once you select Directory name filed and click “Make Directory” button, multiple sub-
directories will automatically be created in the Base directory according to selected option.
Only one directory option among the multiple options can be selected.
Example) If you select “Weekday” option in the filed and Based file name is
flexwatch/server, following sub-directory will automatically be created.
:/flexwatch/server/
Sun
Mon
Tue
Wed
Thu
Fri
Sat
File name :
File name will automatically be created with the prefix (the Base file name).
Multiple file name option field can be selected at the same time. In this case, each Field
is concatenated sequentially But total length of file name is 32 characters including based
directory name.
4.1.2 Directory option for Periodic FTP (Duration Service)

Configuration of Directory option for periodic is same as those of buffered service.
The only difference is that there are Sequence Modulo and Overwrite option in the
option filed.
Sequence Modulo :
This is used when some number of ftp images should be stored and refreshed as new ftp
images are stored in the ftp server. By setting up Modulo number for sequence, you can
limit number of image to be stored and refreshed. If you set it as 8, 8images will be
stored in the FTP directory and FIFO(first come, first out) based image will be saved in

the FTP server.

Overwrite:
This is to refresh old image with new image in the ftp server. This is normally used when
the ftped image should be refreshed every time.
4.2 FTP service configuration

If you get good understanding of Pre/post alarm buffering and FTP directory option, now
you can easily configure FTP function of the system.
Please make sure that you have your own FTP server and create Based directory in the
