• Files ewonfwr.edf and config.bin are binary files and cannot be modify by users.

The config.bin file is Read/Write to allow users to "copy/paste" configuration from one eWON to another.

• The program.bas file is Read/Write; that’s allowing you to design your program offline with your text editor

and to upload it to the eWON.

• Remote.bas is not readable. When a remote.bas file is "dropped" in the eWON root directory, this program is executed 1 time.

This feature can be used to execute single shot action in an automated way.

• The following files only appear if the user owns the "Config rights":

• Program.bas

• ewonfwr.edf

• config.bin

• config.txt

• During FTP session, all files are read-only, except for users who own the "Config rights".

8.2 Files Format

Files format are text semicolon (;) separated files that may be inserted inside a program such as Excel™.
