Hi,  
HL7650 does not have any OS, so it does not support download and save file. It can only show the content of that file. It looks like that it reads all the data of that file and displays to terminal.  
The command is that: AT+KFTPRCV=1,“the path of file on server”,“file name”, “type of data: binary or ascii”  
The response will be:  
CONNECT  
…the data of “file name” will be displayed here…–EOF–

And to send file to FTP server  
AT+KFTPSND=1,“path of file in server”,“file name”  
CONNECT  
—send data here---- --EOF–

The data will be sent to server and stored in “file name”

Thanks,

Hi Jerdung

I read .zip file from FTP server using AT commands. I got the unreadable format data.  
I taken exactly data i used to online to converted it to zip format, after i did extract, after i am able to reading inside zip file data.

same way how to make the zip using python commands without going to online tool conversion.

Hi,  
Python has “zipfile” library to support zipped/unzipped files.  
You can find more details in [https://docs.python.org/3/library/zipfile.html](https://docs.python.org/3/library/zipfile.html) (for python version3.)  
[https://docs.python.org/2/library/zipfile.html](https://docs.python.org/2/library/zipfile.html) (for python version 2.)

Thanks,
