Overview This section demonstrates the use of Windows Explorer™ as it is available on
every Windows based PC. However, other FTP clients however are equally
usable.
Chapter Objectives This chapter describes how the HMI Interface Board transfers files between the
PC/Terminal and the PowerFlex 7000 Medium Voltage Drive. In this chapter,
you will learn how to:
• Copy and open files directly from the drive.
• Use Windows Explorer to access the drive.
Windows Explorer Tutorial This section demonstrates the capability of using Windows Explorer with the
HMI Interface Board module.
To open Windows Explorer:
1. Right-click the Start button in Windows.
2. Click Open Windows Explorer.
3. Enter ftp://ip.ip.ip.ip in the address bar, where ip.ip.ip.ip is the IP address of
the HMI Interface Board module.
Alternatively, Windows Explorer can also be launched from the menu
within the Forge Shell application (see
Drive Menu on page 24 ).
The root directory ( Figure 69 ) shows the revision level of the PowerFlex HMI
Interface Board firmware. In this example, it is 1.008D.
There are also three sub-directories:
• Local – for System use only.
• Drive – files which are available from the drive
• Card – files which are stored on the SD Card
