Overview
The Anybus CompactCom 40 EtherCAT has a built-in file system, that can be accessed from
the application and from the network. Three directories are predefined:
VFS
The virtual file system that e.g. holds the web pages of the module.
Application
This directory provides access to the application file system through the
Application File System Interface Object (EAh) (optional).
Firmware
The firmware directory points to the firmware candidate area where firmware files
can be uploaded.
In the firmware folder, it is not possible to use append mode when writing a file. Be sure to use
write mode only.
