Please specify a local file you want to sync with.

We mention here only KO/Pi, but the same is valid for KA/Pi.

is now very easy.
c) Remote file

Syncing with the profile kind "Remote file" is performed in three steps:
i) download the remote file to your local machine to a temp file
ii) sync with this temp file
iii) upload the synced file to the remote device
The down-/uploading if i) and iii) is done via a command line command.
