Regardless of whether you are working with Automatic mode
or the serial protocol, the FTP connection is closed either
time-based or, for ASCII transmission, with the help of the
Protocol Chars.
n
Inactivity Timeout
Default: 30s
Configure a timeout in seconds for the FTP commands
APPE(nd) and STOR for breaking off the connection. If du-
ring the time set here no serial data are received, the FTP
client closes the connection to the FTP server. 0 deactiva-
tes the timeout and corresponds to a setting of infinite. In
this case you must configure the parameter Protocol Char.

n
Protocol Char
Default: 0
When sending user data in ASCII format (TYPE A) with the
STOR or APPE command, reception of the Protocol Char in the
user data stream results in stopping data transmission and
closing of the network connection. This applies also to the
value 0, which results in monitoring of the data traffic for null
bytes (0x00). For binary transmissions (TYPE I), the presence
of the Protocol Char in the user data stream is ignored. In this
case the connection can only be closed via Inactivity Timeout.
