You should not use FM to download to Presentation server,since FM will not be available in Bakground.

use foreground only.

Thanks

Hi kavitha,

You can't use this Fm in background. This needs to be used in foreground.

Hi kavitha,

No for downloading on presentation server you need to execute the program in foreground only, as all the FM supports foreground processing only for presentation server.

Reward points if useful.
