Upload to personal ftp server #22

Closed deedeeharris closed 1 year ago

deedeeharris commented 1 year ago

Hello. I used the PIT tool to configure my phenocam. I was wondering how can I upload the images to my personal ftp server? Where do I configure the server, port, username, and password? In the settings camera's available in the browser? Or I have to edit some config file manually?

Thanks.

An easier method would be edit the configuration file server.txt after running the installation script. You can do this with the web interface (advanced > manual config > edit server.txt) or using Telnet & a text editor. Just be sure to save the configuration changes when finished.

Thanks! And where do I enter the username and password?

User and password are defined in several other files {ftp.scr, IR_ftp.scr, IP_ftp.scr}.

If you follow the 3rd party network directions, then you only need to edit one file (the install script) plus the camera configurations get backed up on the FTP server too. The trick is hosting the installer .tar.gz package at the right location: it requires an http:// server and the file path must be <HOST>/data/configs/phenocam_default_install.tar.gz

Thanks!

In which file on the phenocam, can I edit how often the camera takes an image manually?

Thanks, Yedidya
