FTP Procedures
There are three ways to FTP files:
• use Microsoft’s® Internet Explorer FTP feature
• use the PC’s or UNIX command window
• use the signal generator’s internal web server following the firmware requirements in the table
below
Using Microsoft’s Internet Explorer
1. Enter the signal generator’s hostname or IP address as part of the FTP URL.
ftp://<host name> or
ftp://<IP address>
2. Press Enter on the keyboard or Go from the Internet Explorer window.
The signal generator files appear in the Internet Explorer window.
3. Drag and drop files between the PC and the Internet Explorer window
Using the Command Window (PC or UNIX)
This procedure downloads to non- volatile memory. To download to volatile memory, change the file
path.
CAUTION Get and Put commands write over existing files by the same name in destination
directories. Remember to change remote and local filenames to avoid the loss of data.
NOTE If a filename has a space, quotations are required around the filename.
Always transfer the waveform file before transferring the marker file.
For additional information on FTP commands, refer to the operating system’s command
window help.
1. From the PC command prompt or UNIX command line, change to the destination directory for the
file you intend to download.
