Transmitting Files via the Hot Folder

The Hot Folder function allows you to transmit files (e.g., photos) automatically over unmanaged networks wherever the action is taking place. This function uses an FTP push to transmit files following the FIFO method (First In, First Out).


Note

  • You can manage the hot folder content on the SD card as you wish.
  • Please refer to the procedure about deleting files in Deleting Files from the SD Card.
  • Files can be transmitted according to 2 priority levels (standard or priority), as defined on the device that transmits the files.

To enable or disable the hot folder function:

Unit Panel
  1. From the Home menu, tap 
    Settings icon
    >
    Forward icon
    > Hot Folder
  2. Tap the toggle button to enable or disable the Hot Folder option.
Web Interface
  1. In the sidebar, click Settings.
  2. Click the Forward tab.
  3. In the Hot Folder pane, click the toggle to enable or disable the Hot Folder function.
    Forward Settings screen

Files are automatically forwarded following the priority levels defined on the camera (standard or high priority). When the file transmission starts, the forward action can be seen on screen.
