Data transfer to or from an external data
medium
Call the file manager
Select the screen layout for data transfer: press the
WINDOW soft key. In the left half of the screen the
TNC shows all files in the current directory. In the
right half of the screen it shows all files saved in the
root directory (TNC:\ ).
Use the arrow keys to highlight the file(s) that you want to transfer:
Moves the highlight up and down within a window
Moves the highlight from the left to the right window,
and vice versa.
If you wish to copy from the TNC to the external data medium, move
the highlight in the left window to the file to be transferred.
Before you can transfer data to an external data medium,
you must set up the data interface (see “Setting the Data
Interfaces” on page 647).
Depending on the data transfer software you use,
problems can occur occasionally when you transmit data
over a serial interface. They can be overcome by repeating
the transmission.
