the parameter settings.
UNIX, Windows and
OS/2 Workstations
Follow the step-by-step procedure below to edit the config file from
UNIX, Windows and OS/2 workstations, using FTP:
1. Log in to the AXIS 540/640 by typing the command:
ftp <host name>↵
2. Enter root as user id and pass as password.
3. Up-load the config file by typing:
get config↵
4. Edit the file using your preferred text editor.
5. Down-load the config file by typing:
put config CONFIG↵
Notes: ❏ It is important that the edited filename is specified in block
capitals. Otherwise, the edits are regarded as temporary and will
be lost once the AXIS 560/660 has been powered down.
❏ The method for performing file transfers using FTP can vary,
dependent upon which FTP application you are using.
Editing from a
Macintosh
To edit the config file from a Macintosh you will need FTP support
such as MacTCP, Fetch or Anarchie. The procedure for doing this is
the same as described for UNIX above.
Printing parameters
