CycloneTCP FTP Client DEMO

This example demonstrates how FTP client running on MCU reads a file from remote FTP server. It will connect to the FTP server "test.rebex.net", port number 21, then log in using username: "demo" and password: "password", and open the file "readme.txt". File will be read and its contents will be written over UART/Application output.

Hardware Support

• Connect Ethernet cable to ETH connector on the right side of the board.
• Connect USB-C cable to USB-UART connector on the left side of the board.

Software Support

We provide demo code for testing FTP client functionality. For example to work, proper clock setup is needed. To create a setup with the adequate clock scheme, follow these steps:

1. Click on Setups and select New.
2. Select GCC ARM or RISC-V compiler and click on Advanced.
3. From Redirect standard output to: drop down menu, select UART, and then click Save.
4. Select Board you are using.
5. Select your MCU and click on Advanced.
6. Select Config scheme from drop down menu, it will have MCU_NAME_ETHERNET name.
7. If you dont see MCU_NAME_ETHERNET scheme for your MCU then ETHERNET module is not supported.
8. Click Save, then Next.
9. Select desired display, and choose programmer/debugger tool.
10. Click Finish.
11. Program the MCU.
12. In case of a setup with UART open Tools view (Ctrl + 7) and select UART Terminal. In case of setup with Application output, run debug and go straight to step 17
13. Click on Options and change Port to the one you are using.
14. Furthemore, change Baud rate to 115200 bps.
15. Press Configure
16. Click on Connect.
17. When prompted, press the appropriate button, and on UART/Application output you can observe the process of connecting to FTP server and reading a file from it.
