FTP feature is a customized function, only CoT Pro Wi-Fi cameras can support this feature. If you use the Yoosee App, you will not find this setting. FTP, file transfer protocol, it's a common network protocol for file transferring. Please note using the FTP function, the camera only can upload recorded video files in SD/TF memory card to the FTP remote server. It can not upload real-time video clips to your remote server via FTP protocol.

1. Download and install CoT Pro App

2. Modify DNS record
No matter you want to bind your email address or set the FTP, users should use the CMSClient software to modify the camera's DNS record, making sure it has an valid DNS record e.g. 8.8.8.8
If the device doesn't have correct DNS record, it will not able to find then connect to the remote server.
