There is a small internal file system accessible with each Pycom device, called `/flash`. This is stored within the external serial flash memory. If a microSD card is also connected and mounted, it will be available as well. When the device starts up, it will always boot from the `boot.py` located in the `/flash` file system.
|
|
|
|
The first time(s), your device will create an Access Point (AP) you can connect to using your computer's WiFi.
|
|
|
|
By default, the device will create a WiFi access point with the following credentials:
|
|
* SSID: `xxpy-wlan-####`
|
|
* Password: `www.pycom.io`
|
|
|
|
>Note: This method of connection is not recommended for first time users. It is possible to lock yourself out of the device, requiring a USB connection.
|
|
|
|
Once connected to this network you will be able to access the telnet and FTP servers running on the LoPy4.
|
|
|
|
The file system is accessible via the native FTP server running on each Pycom device. Open an FTP client and connect to:
|
|
|
|
* url: `ftp://192.168.4.1`
|
|
* username: `micro`
|
|
* password: `python`
|
|
|
|
See [network.server](/firmwareapi/pycom/network/server/) for information on how to change the defaults. The recommended clients are:
|
|
|
|
* macOS/Linux: default FTP client
|
|
* Windows: Filezilla and FireFTP
|
|
|
|
For example, from a macOS/Linux terminal:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
$ ftp 192.168.4.1
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
The FTP server doesn't support active mode, only passive mode. Therefore, if using the native unix FTP client, immediately after logging in, run the following command:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
ftp> passive
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
The FTP server only supports one connection at a time. If using other FTP clients, please check their documentation for how to limit the maximum allowed connections to one at a time.
|
|
|
|
## FileZilla
|
|
|
|
If using FileZilla, it's important to configure the settings correctly.
|
|
|
|
Do not use the quick connect button. Instead, open the site manager and create a new configuration. Within the `General` tab, ensure that encryption is set to: `Only use plain FTP (insecure)`.
|
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
In the `Transfer Settings` tab, limit the max number of connections to one. Other FTP clients may behave in a similar ways; visit their documentation for more specific information.
