FTP (File Transfer Protocol) Connection

FTP is the protocol for exchanging files over the Internet. It works in the same way as
HTTP for transferring web pages from a server to a user's browser and SMTP for
transferring electronic mail across the Internet. FTP uses the Internet TCP/IP protocol to
enable data transfer.
An FTP connection is needed to view the information saved in the XPS controller, to
download documentation, to transfer configuration files (to modify them locally), to
transfer TCL scripts, etc...
To connect to the FTP server:
• Start the XPS controller and wait until the boot sequence completes.

• Select "File" from the menu of the Internet browser, and then "Connect as...". The
