Directory Structure of the Target Folders

This setting is configured in [FTP server] - [Directory structure].

In the case of [Default], the images are saved in the directory where the target root folder is opened. If you have created a subfolder in the root folder by changing the [Target folder] setting, the images are saved in the subfolder.

When you select [Camera], it automatically creates a folder having the same structure as the camera's folder (such as A/DCIM/100EOS1D) in the target root folder. The images are stored in the created folder. If you have created a subfolder in the root folder by changing the [Target folder] setting, a folder structure such as A/DCIM/100EOS1D is created in the subfolder to save the images.

Overwriting Files with the Same Name

This setting is configured in [FTP server] - [Overwrite same file].

When [Overwrite same file] is set to [Disable]

If a file with the same name already exists in the target folder of the FTP server, the new file is saved with an extension consisting of an underscore and a number, as in IMG_0003_1.JPG.

When resending images after the initial transfer fails

If you resend images after their initial transmission has failed, the file may not be overwritten even when the transmitter is configured to overwrite files with the same name. If this happens, the new file is saved with an extension consisting of an underscore, a letter, and a number, as in IMG_0003_a1.JPG.

Passive Mode

This setting is configured in [FTP server] - [Passive mode].

Enable this setting for a network environment protected by a firewall. If Error 41 occurs ("Cannot connect to FTP server"), setting passive mode to [Enable] may enable access to the FTP server.

Trusting a Destination Server

Set in [Trust target server] in [FTP server].

Set it to [Enable] if you want to connect to the FTP server even if the connection destination server cannot be trusted with the root certificate that is used. If you select this setting, be careful with security.
