4.1.3.3.6  FTP-Server (File Transfer Protocol) 
The file transfer protocol (FTP) enables files to be exchanged between differ-
ent network stations regardless of operating system. 
In the case of the ETHERNET coupler/controller, FTP is used to store and 
read the HTML pages created by the user, the IEC61131 program and the 
IEC61131 source code in the (programmable) fieldbus coupler or controller. 
A total memory of 1.5 MB is available for the file system. The file system is 
mapped to RAM disk. To permanently store the data of the RAM disk, the in-
formation is additionally copied into the flash memory. The data is stored in 
the flash after the file has been closed. Due to the storage process, access 
times during write cycles are long. 
Attention 
Up to 1 million write cycles are possible for writing to the flash memory for 
the file system. 
The following table shows the supported FTP commands for accesses to the 
file system: 
Command  Function 
USER  Identification of the user 
PASS  User password 
ACCT  Account for access to certain files 
REIN Server reset 
QUIT  Terminates the connection 
PORT  Addressing of the data link 
PASV  Changes server in the listen mode 
TYPE  Determines the kind of the representation for the transferred file 
STRU  Determines the structure for the transferred file 
MODE  Determines the kind of file transmission 
RETR  Reads file from server 
STOR  Saves file on server 
APPE  Saves file on server (Append mode) 
ALLO  Reservation of the necessary storage location for the file 
RNFR  Renames file from (with RNTO) 
RNTO  Renames file in (with RNFR) 
ABOR  Stops current function 
DELE Deletes file 
CWD Changes directory 
LIST  Gives the directory list
