File Transfer
6. If the kermit protocol is being used and the host kermit is in
remote mode, click the Remote button in the Initiate File
Transfer dialog box, then the Get button in the Remote
Operations dialog box to specify the file to be received,
otherwise, click the Receive button in the Initiate File Transfer
dialog box.
Note: The program waits for the arrival of one or more files from
the host.
7. Click the Start button. If you selected the XMODEM,
XMODEM-1K or ASCII protocol, a dialog box will be displayed
in which you specify the name of the file to be received. All the
other protocols do not require this as the filename is provided by
the sender.
When the transfer begins, a window will be displayed indicating
the status of the file transfer.
On completion of the transfer, or if the transfer is cancelled (refer
to the next section), an audible tone will sound and appropriate
messages will be displayed. (ASCII requires user intervention
and will continue to transfer data until you cancel it.)
Note: Once the file transfer is initiated you can minimize the
window to run it in the background.
