1. Connecting to a PC over FTP
This document has been created on the assumption that it will be used to check connections
with the basic configuration.
Until a connection is successfully established, configure the settings according to this document.
Thereafter, change the settings as necessary.
This chapter explains how to establish a connection between the XG-X2000 and a PC in order
to output images over FTP.
1.1 Connecting Devices
1.1.1 Wiring
Use one of the following methods to connect the devices. Use a CAT5e or higher Ethernet cable.
Connecting in a 1 to 1 Configuration
XG-X2000 PC
Ethernet
crossover cable
Connecting through a Hub
To give priority to the checking of the FTP connection, disconnect all devices other than
the XG-X2000 and the PC from the hub before establishing the connection. To connect
other devices, first configure the settings as described in this document, successfully establish
the connection, set the IP address to an appropriate value, and then connect the other devices.
XG-X2000 Hub PC
Ethernet cable Ethernet cable
Ethernet cable
Other
devices
Disconnect all devices other than the XG-X2000
and the PC. If you have to connect other devices,
exercise caution to prevent the duplication of
IP addresses.

(9) If you select the "Destination" and an error dialog box with the message
"Failed to connect to FTP server." is displayed, the FTP connection failed.
Check the details in "1.1 Connecting Devices" again.
When checking these details, use the exact values from the setting examples in this
document for items such as the IP address, subnet mask, and user ID.
If the connection fails even when you configure the settings exactly as indicated in this
document, the problem may lie in the Windows Firewall settings or there may be
interference from a different FTP server program.
When the problem lies in the Windows Firewall settings
Disable Windows Firewall.
* Caution
Disabling the firewall may pose a risk of danger to PCs connected to networks inside
and outside of your company. Either prepare a PC for use only in connecting over FTP
or disable the setting only after consulting your network administrator.
When there is interference from a different FTP server program
If different FTP server programs are installed on the PC, disable all the other FTP
servers other than the one you are attempting to use here.
