Send lists were
called configuration
files in some previous
versions of AlphaSmart
Manager.
Create a "startup"
send list to help reset
your NEOs at the
beginning of the year. The
send list could include the
master password you want to
set, enabling file passwords,
and the necessary
SmartApplets.
At the start of the school
year, you might also want to
delete your KeyWords and
AlphaQuiz students and erase
all files on the NEOs.

Whenever you choose to send changes to the NEO, whether you are sending
files, changes to settings, or SmartApplet changes, you can choose to save
your send list so that it's easy to make the same changes again later.
This is helpful when you're managing a group of NEOs in a SmartOption
Mobile Lab and you want to restore them to a specific configuration. For
example, you can use a send list to set all NEOs to the configuration you want
quickly at the beginning of a school year, class period, or marking period.
Send lists are also helpful if you find yourself sending the same changes to
NEOs over and over.
Please note that send lists don't include any information from the Get/Print
AlphaWord Files and KeyWords tabs. This is because those tabs retrieve
information from NEOs instead of sending it.
You might want to have different types of send lists for different types of
changes. For example, you might have a setup send list that includes the
SmartApplets your students will need and any setting changes that are
required, and you might have a separate list that sends files used for
exercises.
When you set up a send list that includes files on the AlphaWord Files to Send
tab, you can enter text in all eight files, even if you only check one or two. That
text will be saved in your send list, and you can then use it as a master list for
the eight files. You can open the send list and choose which of the eight files to
send at that time.
