3.2.3 Create new directory on the SIMATIC IOT2000
The default storage path for scripts, created with the Eclipse IDE, on the SIMATIC
IOT2000 is the directory “tmp”. The files present in this directory, will be
automatically deleted after a reset or power failure of the SIMATIC IOT2000.
In order to avoid the loss of scripts, a new directory can be created where the files
will be stored.
This is only an example; the projects can be stored in other locations too.
The following table shows how to create a new directory in the SIMATIC IOT2000’s
filesystem.
Table 3-6
Open a valid serial Putty connection and login as root (i.e. See topic 3.3)
Type in “cd /home” command to change the current directory to the home
directory of filesystem, and then press the Enter key.
Type in “mkdir <Foldername>” to create a new directory and then press the
Enter key (i.e mkdir ProjectFolder)
Type in “ls” to show all directories
