Specify Which File Transfer Routines an Outstation Supports
Geo SCADA Expert is able to transfer files such as ISaGRAF applications to an outstation that supported File Transfers.
Use the fields within the File Transfer section of the DNP3 tab to specify whether an outstation supports File Transfer routines and if so, the variation that it supports.
Use the combo box to specify the File Transfer routine that the outstation supports. Choose from:
- Not Supported—The outstation does not support File Transfer routines.
- Legacy g70v1—The outstation only supports the earlier g70v1 File Transfer routines.
- Revised g70 Variations—The outstation supports the revised File Transfer routines defined by the DNP3 standard.
With an outstation that supports file transfers, you can use:
- The Download File pick action to download a file from Geo SCADA Expert to the outstation
- The Upload File pick action to upload a file from the outstation to Geo SCADA Expert
- The Delete File pick action to delete a file on an outstation.
For more information, see Using DNP3 Specific Actions.
