Reading-out archives
The files to be sent (directories or individual files) are zipped in an archive (*.ARC). If you
send an archive (*.arc), this is sent directly without being additionally zipped. If you have
selected an archive (*.arc) together with an additional file (e.g. directory), then these are
zipped into a new archive and are then sent.
Reading-in archives
Only archives can be read-in via the RS-232-C. These are transferred and then
subsequently unzipped.
Note
Start-up archive
If you read in a start-up archive via the RS-232-C, then this is immediately activated.
Externally processing the punched tape format
If you wish to externally process an archive, then generate this in the punched tape format.
Using the SinuCom commissioning and service tool SinuCom ARC, you can process the
archive in the binary format and in the commissioning archive.
