12.06 BATCH MODE
While files can be manually selected using the Interactive Mode, automatic transfers of a
predefined area (a sub-directory or preferably a diskette) can be achieved through Batch
Mode.
In Batch Mode, a user or field technician with no previous knowledge of the system can
easily effect a transfer to the Flash disk. This can be done either by calling a batch file
(*.bat) or by simply issuing the proper command line parameters directly from DOS.
When the transfer is complete, reset the system. This allows the BIOS and DOS to
recognize the new Flash disk.
Keep in mind that Batch Mode can be called directly from a floppy or hard disk, from a
remote computer, or from a portable computer. In each case, the selected files can be
downloaded to the Flash devices.
Batch Mode returns error codes (errorlevel) that can be read by a DOS batch file or by a
high level language program.
