File Transfer
Setting Protocol Parameters
General Parameters
Clicking the General... button in the Initiate File Transfer dialog box will cause the
General Parameters dialog box to be displayed, as shown above. This enables you
to set various parameters for any of the transfer protocols. Note that the Kermit and
ZMODEM protocols have additional parameters which can be set in another dialog
box by clicking the Kermit or ZModem button in the Initiate File Transfer dialog
box. Refer to the following sections for details.
Timer
Factory default: On, Selected
When this option is selected, if no packets have been received for a certain period of
time then a retry will be attempted. The protocol will be exited if the number of re-
tries exceeds that specified by the Retry Limit option.
Warning Bell
Factory default: On, Selected
When this option is selected, an audible tone will sound when a transfer is completed
or cancelled.
Discard Partial File
Factory default: Yes, Selected
This option determines what happens to a file when an error condition occurs or the
Reset or Cancel button is clicked during a file transfer. When selected, the part of the
file already transferred will be deleted. When unchecked, the part of the file that has
been transferred will be kept.
