Downloading Large Software Files from RSC File Manager Using FTP

File Manager is an RSC application that we use to store and transfer files related to your Archibus installation. RSC will need to set up your File Manager and FTP account before you can use this access to access Archibus files. Please contact your account manager to have them set this up for you. Organizations may choose to share a File Manager account or have one set up for each person who needs access.
