The NX Field System

What the NX Field System Can Do for You

The NX Field System lets you operate cameras remotely from a master camera or from an iPhone or iPad running the NX Field app. Using the NX Field System, you can control multiple cameras remotely from a master camera, iPhone, or iPad and upload pictures to an FTP server as they are taken.

The NX Field System

To use the NX Field System, you will need a master camera (or an iPhone or iPad), remote cameras, and an FTP server, all on the same network. All cameras for use with the NX Field System must be configured as described in this guide.

  1. Master camera or iPhone/iPad
  2. Hub (L3 switch)
  3. Remote cameras
  4. WAN
  5. FTP server

Setting the Camera Clocks

We recommend that you set the clocks on all cameras as accurately as possible when using the NX Field System.

  • Remote cameras automatically synchronize their clocks with iPhones or iPads connected via the NX Field app when the app’s clock synchronization feature (accessible via / > [Option]) is enabled.
  • With a master camera, the clocks must be synchronized manually, as the connection is not made via the NX Field app.
