9.6. Core mode, FTP support
After switching to the core mode (stop in the bootloader), you can connect to the controller using
the FTP protocol. In this mode, you should always connect to the default static address of the
controller from the ADMIN account level, by providing the default password (device serial
number) – even if it has been changed.
Direct connection (cable) - assumptions:
- a
computer with a stable IP in the same sub-network as the controller

The connection to the controller via FTP can be useful when it is not possible to upload the
firmware update via the application. Then, replace the "UPGRADE.UPG” file in the controller and
exit the core mode (by force). The controller will be automatically updated.
Using the FTP you can also delete the preloaded configuration.
