Copying Files between Windows and Linux - Carleton-SRCL/SPOT GitHub Wiki

On the ground station computer, open a command prompt window:

Then, navigate to the PuTTY directory using cd C:\Program Files\PuTTY.

Once there, simply use the following format to get whatever file you want off of the Linux computer remotely. Here is a sample:

pscp.exe -pw srcl2023 -r [email protected]:/home/spot-red/pwm_script.py C:\Users\SPOT\Documents\

This line will copy the file pwm_script.py from the spot-red platform to the ground station computer, and will place it in the documents folder.

To copy a file or folder from the Windows-based ground station to the remote Linux machines, in the same command prompt use the following code:

pscp.exe -pw srcl2023 -r C:\Users\SPOT\Documents\pwm_script.py [email protected]:/home/spot-red/

This line will copy the file pwm_script.py from the ground station to the spot-red Xavier, and will place it in the /spot-red/ folder.
