[. . . ] Note that in the Select Files For File Transfer dialog, communication settings apply to every file in the File list (since in this case the communication settings are relating to a system device that is the source for files you are receiving, not to individual files that may be sent to any of several devices in the system). Click OK to close the Select Files For File Transfer dialog. The files you added should now appear in the Files To Receive queue of the Receive tab.

FileTransfer2 17 Using FileTransfer2 Step 2: Communication Settings Communication settings for each file is established and saved with the files when they are created in NetLinx Studio, but can be overwritten in FileTransfer2, via options in the Communication Settings dialog (accessible via the Edit menu). Files can be transferred to/from a NetLinx master via TCP/IP, Serial-RS232, Modem or Virtual NetLinx Master connection. Files can be transferred to/from a Axcess master via Serial-RS232 or Modem connection. Listening for NetLinx Masters Click the Listen button in either the TCP/IP Settings dialog to listen for "blink" (UDP) messages from NetLinx Masters on the subnet, in the Listen For Masters dialog. As NetLinx Masters are detected on the subnet, they are displayed in the Listen For Master dialog, with the option of adding them to the List of Addresses in the TCP/IP Settings dialog: 1. Select a file in either the Send or Receive tab. Select Communication Settings from either the File Transfer context menu or the Edit menu to open the Communication Settings dialog. Select TCP/IP as the Transport Connection Option. Click Edit Settings to open the TCP/IP Settings dialog. Click Listen to open the Listen For Masters dialog. Click Start Listening to begin "listening" for UDP messages from active NetLinx Masters on the subnet. Click Stop Listening to stop listening for UDP packets. All Masters that were detected on the subnet are listed by TCP. IP URL address in this dialog. To Add NetLinx Masters to the List of Addresses in the TCP/IP Settings dialog: 1. Select one or more (Ctrl + click to multi-select) of the Masters in the List of Active NetLinx Master Controllers (Listen For Masters dialog) that you want to add to the List of Address in the TCP/IP Settings dialog.

Click OK to save the new TCP/IP settings, close the dialog and add the new connection to the List of Addresses. Note that if you selected multiple Masters (in the Listen for Masters dialog), the New TCP/IP Settings dialog opens for each file individually to allow you to configure (or verify) every Master connection. Virtual NetLinx Master FileTransfer2 supports direct connection to G4 panels via TCP/IP and USB, for situations where the target panel is not connected to a NetLinx Master. [. . . ] For a TCP/IP transfer, the command would be: ip/url:[port]:[ping-before-connect] The IP/URL address can be either the IP address or an URL and the port specifies the port on the master. An example for a TCP/IP transfer would be: 192. 168. 221. 3:1319:1 -oramx. boardroom. net:1319:0 The port is optional and defaults to 1319. Ping-before-connect is optional and the default is 1(enabled). For serial transfer, the command would be: commport, baud, [databits], [parity], [stopbits], [flow] commport = specifies the comm.
