You can transfer files to and read files from the Heat Manager through a so-called FTP (file
transfer protocol) connection. This is a standardized way of transferring files between systems.
For more information on this, check
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File_Transfer_Protocol
In order to work with this protocol in a simple way you can make use of the free FTP tool FileZil-
la client. You can download it at
https://filezilla-project.org/
Remark: download the previous version of FileZilla, version 3.9.0.5, since the commands the
new version 3.11.0.1 sends to the Heatmanager Pro FTP server are not supported. This older
version can be downloaded from:
http://sourceforge.net/projects/filezilla/files/FileZilla_Client/3.9.0.5/

ISABLE FIREWALL SETTINGS
You need to disable firewall settings in your system since this blocks this application. Before
starting the communication, make sure you have a connection between your PC and the Heat
Manager.
Normally you connect the Heat Manager to your PC via a so-called switch, in that case you
make use of so-
called “straight” ethernet cabling. When connecting directly from a PC to the
Heat Manager (so without a switch) you need to make use of a so-
called “crossed” ethernet
cable. Check with your
IT administrator for help on this subject.
Also make sure you set the IP address of the touchscreen correctly (see the engineering
manual “network settings” for these adjustments).
You need to know the correct IP address of the Heat Manager your wish to connect to.
