Your quote above is missing a colon, maybe that was it?
scp <file> user at 192.168.0.200:
                              ^
You can always copy in both directions from your laptop:

from laptop to FR:
scp localfile root at 192.168.0.202:remotefile

from FR to laptop:
scp root at 192.168.0.202:remotefile localfile
