Downrush is a simple FlashAir file manager for SynthStrom Deluge music synthesizer. You can use it to download and upload files without removing the card from the synth. This first version is very simple. Expect improvements.
If you are using Windows, the following link gives instructions on making hidden files visible.

On the Apple Mac, you can enter the following command on the command line and it will unhide the directory and file involved. You will want to activate a 'Terminal Window', which you can find by typing 'terminal.app' into Spotlight. Then paste the following line into the terminal to execute.
chflags -R nohidden /VOLUMES/NO\ NAME/SD_WLAN
Wait 30 seconds for the card to boot up inside your Deluge. (It is slower the first time).

or http://192.168.0.1/
Once everything works OK, you might want to re-hide your files. On the Mac, you can do this with the following:
chflags -R hidden /VOLUMES/NO\ NAME/SD_WLAN
To re-hide on Windows, just uncheck the box you checked earlier.
If you are updating an existing Downrush installation, put the new List.htm into card's SD_WLAN and completely replace the contents of DR with the new version. Unless told-to, you don't need to update the stuff in SD_WLAN.
The FlashAir card comes with a timeout feature which shuts down the WiFi AP functionality after 5 minutes of inactivity. If you want to disable this feature, set the timeout value to 0.
Change the CONFIG line: APPAUTOTIME=300000
to instead be: APPAUTOTIME=0
If you are updating downrush from a previous version and things seem strange, you may have to clear the browsers cache. The time stamps on SD Card directory entries are not always valid and this can cause stale files to linger unwanted in the cache.
Don't try and install Downrush by cloning the git depository and copying files over from that. You must use a downrush.zip file from over at https://github.com/jamiefaye/downrush/releases.
If you build Downrush from source, or want to change the configuration yourself, you can.
Note that whatever editor you use to modify the CONFIG file has to write the file back out using Windows-style line-endings. Some editors notice what the line-endings are and preserve them, others do not. Deluge users have wasted an enormous amount of time flailing away with their CONFIG files until this limitation was discovered.
It is possible to configure the FlashAir card to act like any other device on your home network.
Be aware that the WiFi range is only a few meters. It is relatively easy to make a mistake editing CONFIG that breaks the WiFi functionality. You need to know how to use a text editing program that works with raw text.
First you need to unhide the SD_WLAN directory and the SD_WLAN/CONFIG file as described above.
You can open the CONFIG file using an editor program. On Windows, use NotePad.
Make sure that these three lines are present in the file, these enable the uploading features and avoid timeouts:
UPLOAD=1
WEBDAV=2
APPAUTOTIME=0
If you want to change your WiFi password, you can do that by replacing asterisks in the line:
APPNETWORKKEY=********
with:
APPNETWORKKEY=NEWPASSW
