The server FTP has to allow writing in the selected directory.

Example of the daily reports with a CSV format created by the program LIB\utilities\p\reportv1.prg.

1. Create a file pcvue.cmd which will be launched by the SCADA Basic instruction, Application, at a set time.
   For example: for a connection to the server ftp.arcinfos.com
   ftp -n -s:D:\PCVue.ftp ftp.arcinfos.com
2. Create the file in this example D:\Pcvue.ftp containing the following commands.
   • User is followed by the name of user and the password
   • ascii indicate an ASCII transfer
   • cd selects the FTP directory
   • mput make copies out  of one or several files
   • This technique also works for reading use mget in that case
   • bye disconnects
