Application Transfers
This chapter provides instructions for configuring communications
settings when planning to transfer application files and Alarm
History files between the PanelView 1000e/1200e/1400e terminals

1200 Transfer Utility Manual (Publication Number 2711-821).
The following information and table will help you determine which
driver packages and drivers you need for your particular system
configuration and what the appropriate transfer link will be for your
communication hardware setup. You need to know:
•
what hardware you have
•
what transfer link you’re using
•
which driver package you’re using
•
which driver options must be configured
Table 5.A provides a matrix to help determine your hardware and
driver requirements.
