Here it can be read by «another program» which can process and display the on-line image data at e.g. the World Wide Web. The «another program» is not a part of the ACC2 program and can not be run on the camera PC. (The Geomapper program written by Dagfinn Opsvik can be used as the «another program».) The settings in the configuration file (see below) must then be: ACC_NET_IMAGE_ALLOW 1 ACC_NET_IMAGE_DIR y:\directory1\directory2 .. The y:\directory1\directory2..

The exposure times should be 2000 and 1000 milliseconds (e$), and all images are stored at the harddisk (s1). At the start of the minute the image is also copied to network disk (u1). If the ACC_USE_CONTROL_SEC is 2 in the configuration file the program read the run file and the timer file or the Garmin GPS 12XL receiver.
