To transfer files by FTP, you either need a PLC to control the file transfer or you can use the script function.
A PLC offers more flexibility:
Flexible transmission times as required (e.g. via time stamp, event, or digital input).
Transmission (reading and writing) of any file type.
Transmission of files generated from PLC data to the FP-I4C unit.
Transmission of recipe data from existing files to the PLC.
If no PLC is connected, you can use the script function to write log files in regular intervals to an FTP server (reading is not possible).
Ready-made function blocks are available for Control FPWIN Pro7. To download these function blocks or a programming example, select the buttons at the end of the configuration page.
