Using StageNow FileMgr to copy/transfer from a Device to a Computer?

I've successfully used the FileMgr in StageNow to transfer files from the staging computer TO the Android device on numerous occasions, however I'm having some trouble getting the syntax/options straight for copying/transferring files back from the the device TO the staging computer. I've tried doing some searching for docs on this, and everything seems to just cover transferring TO the device, not FROM it.

Is there any documentation out there for transferring back from a device, like a config or log file that may only exist on the device? I'm assuming that in the FileMgr, we use the 'Upload File(s)' File Action, but I'm unsure what syntax/format to use for the Target URI and possibly the File Name Pattern. My trial and error haven't been successful thus far. Do I only need to put the IP address of the target computer that I want to transfer to, or do I need to also include the ftp: protocol and/or the destination directory somehow in the field? Or do I put the destination directory in the File Name Pattern?

Thanks in advance for your time.

Hi,

The syntax for downloading from an FTP server is documented here as:

ftp-p://user:password@W.X.Y.X:21/filename.extension

I haven't tested but its probably the same for the upload function.
