Select the type of server to connect to. Block
Text
|
| [Connect ID] |
The connection ID of the server to connect to, as an integer. The connection ID must be the ID set in the [FTP Connections] field in the [Project Explorer] window.

Text
The [LocalStorage] storage option is available for ST6000 Series or STM6000 Series only.
|
| [Target Path] |
Specify the path of the file and folder on the display unit for the copy from or copy to operation. When using SP5000 Series Open Box (Windows 10 IoT Enterprise Model), IPC Series, and PC/AT[Target Path] is the path in [Destination Folder (USB Storage)] or [Destination Folder (SD Card)]. For example, if [Target Path] is "/Folder1/" and [Destination Folder (USB Storage)] is "C:\USBStorage", the full path is "C:\USBStorage\Folder1". [Destination Folder (SD Card)] and [Destination Folder (USB Storage)] are found in [System Architecture] ➞ [Target01] ➞ [Function] tab ➞ [Options] subtab ➞ [Preferences].
|
| [If File Exists] |
Specify whether to overwrite files with the same name that exist in the destination. Block
Text
The Text Mode input assistance feature displays both 'KeepBoth' and 'ConfirmationMessage' in 'FileConflictAction', but because they are not supported by the [Remote File Management] operation, selecting them displays an error.

- If there are more than 1000 files in the source folder, the [Remote File Management] operation ends after copying the 1000th file.
- If the file to copy is larger than 250 MB, the file is skipped and the next file is copied. Skipped files are not included in the 1000 copy limit.
- Multiple [Remote File Management] operations cannot be performed at the same time.
[Remote File Management] operations also cannot be executed at the same time as [File Management] operations. Check the target source property (Target01.Preferences.FileManagement.Status) to confirm the operation status. While this source property is ON, no new [Remote File Management] or [File Management] operations can be performed.
(Example)
If you want to copy files from the folder "/Data1/" on the FTP server with an FTP connection ID of 1 to the folder "Folder1" in the display unit's USB storage, set the following script.
Block
Text
'copyFilesFromServer($Enums.Server.FTP, 1, "/Data1/", $Enums.Storage.USBStorage, "/Folder1/", $Enums.FileConflictAction.Overwrite);'
