Local ASCII file transfer



I'm writing an iPad application that will control a HD1010 via UDP commands. This is a closed network, the Pad talks to a WiFi router with an HD1010 attached. That's the extent of the network. Here's my issue. When the video files are written to the SD card, an ASCII file will be written to the SD card as well. I need to transfer the ASCII file from the HD1010 to the iPad. I've done this with other media players using FTP. I've recently learned that there is no FTP server on board the HD1010. I realize I am barely scratching the surface on the capabilities of this device, but this is what I need to it at this time. Is there a way to transfer a ASCII file from the HD1010 to the iPad... locally, without an Internet connection? A nudge in the right direction would be appreciated. ~jeff

    Does the ipad have a web server? Is this just a text file?  The brightsign can do an http post? It can also to an http put.

    di dyou try the ListDir command?

    Extract from the Object Reference Manual: ListDir(path As String) As Object: Returns an roList containing the contents of the specified directory path.

    Thanks for your response.  I am way beyond this question at this time.  I'm writing custom UDP commands and replies for comm and feedback.  And using the maintenance web server for file transfers.  Great platform!
    Have a great weekend!
