Downloading vehicle data from the Traffic Controller FPS via FTP
Both csv files and vehicle files can be downloaded from the Traffic Controller FPS via FTP
by using an FTP client on the customer network.
For this reason, the Traffic Controller FPS has an integrated FTP server. This FTP server is
accessed via the
client
user account with the corresponding password. For an overview of
the default passwords, please see the following section of the annex:

Transferring vehicle data directly to an external storage medium
The
FTP Export
and
UNC Export
plug-ins do not allow you to save the vehicle data
permanently on the Traffic Controller FPS. Instead, they are used to transfer the data
directly to an external storage medium.
•
The
FTP Storage
plug-in works in a similar way to the
Disk Storage
plug-in by
generating vehicle files in the
vehicle
format. It then uploads these automatically to
a customer FTP server. For this reason, the Traffic Controller FPS has an integrated
FTP client. The connection settings for the FTP server are stored in the plug-in itself.

•
The
UNC Storage
plug-in also creates vehicle files in the vehicle format, but it saves
these in a UNC path. Entering a UNC path (Universal Naming Convention) allows a
directory in a network to be accessed without the need for a drive letter. The UNC path
does not need to be visible in Windows Explorer. Windows shared folders can also be
used as UNC destinations. The storage location is specified in the plug-in itself.
