I'm currently in China, within 24hours I fly back home. 

I want to be able to ftp from MAX, from the pc which is connected to the Realtime target.

So I can remotely change LV programs from Belgium and ftp them from the pc in China to the target.

FTP is possible on my development machine because I have LV RT installed.

But it s not available on the other machine that will stay here in china.

Please explain what I need to install on the pc that stays here.

I have the installation DVD of LV 861 with me.

2.  FTP

3.  Open name or ip address of the fieldpoint

4.  Enter ? to get a list of all the commands you can use.

Hey all,

Customer called in to the office as this was an urgent issue.

Using a separate FTP client was not the preferred option for the customer as he would like to manage several cFP system from a Remote Desktop Connection.

On the Remote Desktop PC, which is at the same location as the cFP systems, no LabVIEW or LabVIEW Real-Time will be installed. It will only have the needed drivers, including MAX.

To install the MAX FTP Client, you can simply browse to a folder of the LabVIEW Real-Time DVD.

On the LabVIEW 8.6.x platform DVD's, you can find it on the following location:

<DVD>\Distributions\Real-Time\Products\LabVIEW_FTP_Client

Once installed, the customer immediately had the "File Transfer" option in the shortcut menu of the Remote Target device in MAX.
