The 130Xe And The Ramdisk.22 - Atari XM301 Owner's Manual

You can press
[Select]
to interrupt the file transfer while it is in
progress. However, the
[Select]
command does not work while thi
prompt, Press SELECT to stop transfer, is displayed. If you press
[Select]
during transmission, the word Error! appears temporarily
on your screen and transmission is halted.
The screen displays a period (.) each time a block of data is
transferred successfully. The screen displays a slash (/) each time
an error is detected. When XE Term finds an error, it transmits the
block of data again. XE Term retries ten times. If there is still a
transmission error, XE Term aborts the file transfer.
When XE Term finishes sending or receiving the file, the screen
displays the prompt:
Done!
THE 130XE AND THE RAMDISK
If you have an ATARI 130XE Computer, XE Term will automatically
install the DOS 2.5 RamDisk when you load XE Term. You can use
the RamDisk (Drive 8) as an additional capture buffer, or save a
downloaded program to Drive 8 (D8), and then go offline before
saving the program to disk. Using the RamDisk will save online
connect time as the RamDisk is faster than your ATARI Disk Drive.
For detailed information on the use of the RamDisk, see the
ATARI
130XE Owner's Manual
or the
ATARI DOS 2.5: 1050 Disk Drive
Owner's Manual.
