The permanent storage features a tiny multilevel directory structure with two nodes '/
active' and '/dl'.
The root directory is secured and contains two subdirectories '/active' and '/dl'.
The '/active' subdirectory contains the system software in execution. Other files may be
present to ensure the good operation of the device, or due to previous system software
upgrades.
The '/dl' subdirectory is the directory where you can find a user.ini file, holding the most
recently saved SpeedTouch™610 configuration. The '/dl' subdirectory also contains the
passive (dormant) system software (in most cases the passive system software will be
the same as the active system software present the '/active' subdirectory. Optionally,
the '/dl' subdirectory may contain software activation keys for enabling Speed-
Touch™610 software modules, language pack files and template files. Other files may be
present as well to ensure the good operation of the device.
There may be a user.ini file present in the '/active' subdirectory. However,
Note
this user.ini only contains the saved configuration since the last software
switchover, and hence may be not up-to-date.

the file transfer proceed (by printing a mark for each 2048 bytes that have been trans-
ferred:
