How to Upload Record Images to FTP Server?

How to Upload Record Images to FTP Server? If the referred POE cameras work as a standalone camera, they support the FTP function, and the motion detection captures could be uploaded to the FTP server if you build up an FTP server on your computer.

Here are the steps about how to upload the captures to the FTP server:

1. Please powered on the camera by using an external 12V power adapter.

2. Please connect the camera to the router via the ethernet cable.

3. Please run the SADPTool on the computer to activate the camera and find the IP address of it. The computer needs to connect to the same router as the camera is connected.

Here is the link to download the SADPTool:
