6.5 File transfer via FTP
The File Transfer Protocol (FTP) is a network protocol for the transfer of data within networks.
• FTP makes it possible to exchange files between the Lenze controller, IPC, or HMI and other PCs.
• The controller, IPC, or HMI data can be accessed via FTP connection.
• FTP requires an existing connection or a remote connection.
• In order to be able to transfer files with Windows® via FTP, the Windows® Explorer can be used
which comes with an integrated FTP support.

Note!
FTP must be used for system-diagnostic purposes only. Deleting or changing system files
causes malfunctions of the controller!
Controller p300:
• These devices come with a deactivated FTP in the Lenze standard setting.
• The function can be activated via the »WebConfig«. The activation of the function can
influence the real-time behaviour.
• After a restart of the Controller, the function is deactivated again.

Further information relating to the function and configuration of FTP and web server/
»WebConfig« can be found in the reference manual:
