● To use a Web browser as an FTP client:

→ P.32). The VB101 does not support anonymous FTP.

● Use only flash memory cards recommended by Canon.

The VB101 has 2 card slots, and you can store Web page data, etc. by inserting a flash memory card into

one of these slots.

You can insert the card into either

slot. But if flash memory cards are

inserted in both slots, you cannot use both cards at the same time. Preparation is

complete when the LED on the front of the VB101 changes from green to orange.

Create directories named "htdocs" and "logs", for Web page data (hereafter referred to

as content) and log data respectively, on the flash memory card. You can create the

directories using ftp commands or by inserting the flash memory card into a notebook

PC etc and using file operations.

You can save the content to the flash memory card using either file operations on a

notebook PC etc or remotely using FTP. When a flash memory card is inserted

correctly, it is mounted in the VB101 file system as a directory named "/card". The

content data is stored as files in the /card/htdocs directory (file names made up of eight

alphanumeric characters followed by a three-character extension). Data can also be

stored in the flash memory built into the VB101. However, due to the limited available

space (550 kilobytes), only the minimum required amount of data can be stored.
