Choose files to include in AFU
The following types of off-system storage are supported for AFU:
FTP
,
CIFS
,
RSync
,
SFTP
,
SCP
and
USB Drive
.
Only
one
type of AFU can be used at once.
Files are uploaded once (i.e. are automatically not re-uploaded during future sessions) and a log is kept
showing the file transfers (see below for details on viewing the log). The first transfer occurs after the
configured amount of time expires or after the current file completes recording. If connection is lost during
the transfer, the transfer is automatically restarted when the connection is reestablished.
By default, channels and recorders are not configured to support automatic file upload for their recorded
files. You must enable this feature for each channel or recorder you wish to include in your automatic file
transfers.
If recorded files are selected for upload while the AFU is at maximum upload capacity or when the AFU is
unavailable, they are added to an upload queue. Files and their relevant information are displayed in a list
format, and each file will be uploaded when upload capacity becomes available.

When configuring automatic file upload (AFU) you need to tell the system which channels and recorders you
want included in the upload schedule.
When you log into the system and attempt to configure your desired type of AFU you see the following
warning in the Automatic File Upload configuration page if no channels or recorders are configured to be part
of AFU.
