File Transfer Protocol (FTP) Operation
The iRIS acts as an FTP client, when requested to connect to a given FTP server it will upload a file containing data since
the last upload. The iRIS can communicate with up to two servers at the same time, each has an associated independent
start of data pointer, which means only new data is uploaded not all data since beginning of memory. The data format
and file name convention are described in the following sections.
