Sending a File to the Dolphin
1. Open the Dolphin File Transfer Program Configuration dialog box. Check to
make sure the baud rate is set at 57600. This is the default for YX.EXE. Close
the Configuration dialog box and exit the Dolphin File Transfer program. To
change the baud rate, see the section on “Sending Files at a Higher Rate” on the next

Explorer and the Dolphin File Transfer shortcut on your desktop.
3. In Windows Explorer, select the file to be transferred and, while holding down the

the desktop. This opens the Dolphin File Transfer program.

5. Press <ENTER> on the Dolphin terminal to begin the file transfer. The COMM
LED on the Dolphin HomeBase will blink red and green during the transfer. You

rates is also loaded on the Dolphin terminal. To send at a higher rate, the Dolphin
HomeBase must be programmed at the higher baud rate. Configuration Switch 2
should be in the down position. Refer to the section on Baud Rate Selection in
Configuring a Single Dolphin HomeBase or Creating a HomeBase Network later in this chapter.
