PLC to FTP?

[JTE]

Anyone log data with a PLC and automaticaly send it to a web server? IE connect via FTP and append data to an exsting file?

I want to stay with Automationdirect if I can. I do it now with a older simple laptop connected to the PLC and the internet (along with a small VB app I wrote).

What PLC are you thinking about doing this with?

Automatindirect DL06

If not. the final goal is to have an inexpencive way to log data and FTP it to a site.

Depends on your definition of 'inexpensive'. For US$475, you could add a C-More EA7-S6M HMI (LINK) which has a built-in FTP server.
