Accessing The Server - Siemens SITRANS RD500 Operating Instructions Manual

FTP Server and Client
FTP Server
The RD500's FTP Server provides a means to exchange files between the CompactFlash
card and an FTP client application. The RD500 will act as a server, waiting for client
applications to connect and download.
This also allows remote users to access the CompactFlash card as if it were a drive
within the PC. Log files can be manually copied and pasted from the RD500 to the user's
computer.
From the Overview page, click Configure and then FTP to configure this facility.
Check Enable FTP Server check box to activate the FTP Server support. The following
setting then applies.
• The Anonymous Access defines the rights for a user accessing the server with
anonymous username and blank password. If Disabled, no anonymous users can
access the server. In Read-Only mode, the anonymous user can only download files
from the CompactFlash card. In Read-Write, the user will have full access to the
CompactFlash card. For security reasons, Disabled is recommended.
To access the FTP server when anonymous is disabled, the RD500 account
username and passwords should be used.
