You must now disconnect your computer from the network.

Transferring a File to PowerScript from a Computer

This example shows how to transfer a font file (named MYFONT.PFB) to PowerScript
from the BIGFONTS directory on the computer's hard disk (identified as drive C).

Closing the Connection

After you finish work, you must close the FTP session. All you need to do is enter "bye"
or "quit" following the ftp> prompt, and press Return.
When the FTP session closes, you return to the C:\WINDOWS> prompt in the MS-DOS
window. Type "exit" to close the window and return to Windows.

PowerScript ignores the Subnet Mask and Router/Gateway Address information, so you
don't need to enter anything in those text boxes. The FTP Password is optional.

If your Ethernet adapter card is already installed in PowerScript and is also connected to
your network, skip ahead to the next step. Otherwise:
a. Turn off the power to PowerScript.
b. Insert the Ethernet adapter card in the PC Card slot on PowerScript's rear panel.
c. Connect the Ethernet adapter card to your network connection.
8 Turn off the power to PowerScript (if not already turned off), then turn it back on again.
This re-cycling is necessary for PowerScript to recognize your changes and detect the
Ethernet adapter card.
1
Using the steps outlined in the preceding section, open the Network Control Panel.
2
Select the network client installed on your computer, then click Properties.
3 Write down all settings in the Network Properties dialog box so that you can re-install
the client on your computer after finishing your work with PowerScript. (TIP: If you
have a screen capture utility installed on your system, take a snapshot of the dialog box
and print it out for later reference.)
Also make sure that you have your original Windows 95 installation disks or CD-ROM
available so that you can re-install the network client files.
4
Close the Network Properties dialog box, when you return to the Network dialog box,
make sure your network client is still selected, then click Remove.
5
Close the dialog box and all applications, then restart Windows.
6 After Windows restarts, you are ready to create the connection. Turn to page 158 and
complete the steps under "LAN Configuration" to establish the connection.
