Preconfiguration "FTP file transfer (ActiveX)"

The panel with methods for FTP file transfer (upload/download)

This preconfiguration can be activated when creating a new object (e.g. by "New object ..." in the local object menu or by pressing the Insert key after selecting the object) and is included in the group: "/ Communication / Protocols and other communications / FTP communication protocol".
This preconfiguration can be created in the object: PmaFolder or PmaRoot.

- The preconfiguration creates an object of the PmaPanel type containing the FTPdownload and FTPsend methods. These have the sDir, sLocalFile, sRemoteFile parameters. The window contains the PmgWEdit objects used for entering the folder address containing the desired files on the FTP server, the address and filename of the file on local disk and the name of the target saved file. Additional objects are the PmgButton, that provide the FTPdownload or FTPsend methods in the onButtonUp event with the specified values and then the desired files are uploaded/downloaded from/to the FTP server.
- This preconfiguration demands usage of external ActiveX object. This object can be sent to you on demand, contact: Pavel KLIMÍČEK.
- In a window that appears before the object is created, it is necessary to enter the information needed for FTP connection.
- The preconfiguration is created including the panel (object of the PmaPanel type) is functional also as Web panel. In order to make the preconfiguration functional also on the Web, it is necessary to enable the object of the PmaPanel type for the Web (on the "Web server" tab).


The technology used is running in a synchronous mode, therefore it is recommended to call the file transfer methods in a real PROMOTIC application from the PmaSequencer object.
These configurators can be set before the preconfiguration is created:
The name of created objectName of the object created in the Pma objects tree. The maximum name length is 30 characters. This is a system name, so it must contain only alphanumeric and must not contain any diacritics (i.e. national dependent characters), empty string, spaces and the first character must not be a number.
