Overview
In TPDesign5, all file transfer operations are routed through the NetLinx Master to which the target/source touch panels are connected (either via TCP/IP or Serial connection). While all file transfer operations to touch panels are managed by the Master, the files themselves are routed to the panels, where they will reside (touch panel files never reside on the Master).
There are three types of file transfer operations in TPD5 (accessible via the Transfer menu):
- Send To Panel: Sends the currently open project (*.TP5) file to a specified Master.
- Send File To Panel: Sends a selected project file to a specified Master, without opening the file in TPD5.
- Receive From Panel: Receives a project file from a Master.
