D Rack parameter file (only for racks containing UDC

modules)
D Task title page (task name, description, engineer, slot,

priority, critical, reconstructible, utility).

D Task documentation file
D Task source code
D Task cross reference file

If you deĆselect (uncheck) System Print, the System Documentation

and Network Cross Reference options (listed in the Custom Print

box) will be enabled. Select System Documentation to print out the

system documentation file.
The Network Cross Reference options are mutually exclusive. If you

choose One Network, you must also enter the network letter. If

multiple systems have been selected, the One Network option will be

disabled. If you choose All Networks, the network cross reference

will be printed for all of the networks in the system.
Select Use Existing Cross Reference Files if you know that the

cross reference files are current. Selecting this option will save time

since new files will not be generated before printing. If cross

reference files do not already exist, they will be generated and

printed. Note that cross reference files generated by the print routine

will be deleted after printing.
Select Generate Log to create a log file that will list any errors that

may occur during the print job. Each system will have a separate log

file. The log file will exist under the system directory and will be

named _PRINT.LOG. If there are no errors, the log file will simply list

the files that were printed.

5.1.7

Transferring a System

The Transfer command can be used at the system, section, rack, or

task level. The description that follows applies to Transfer at all levels.
The Transfer command is used to transfer copies of all or part of an

AutoMax system from one computer to another, e.g., from the

development site where the system is configured and application

tasks are written to the actual installation site via floppy disks or

removable hard disks.
When using the Transfer command to provide the required files for a

site which is using the RunĆTime Executive software, the supplier

should select the Object Files" option described in the procedure

below. This will provide the target site with all the necessary files

(configuration, task, and drive parameter files) as well as the

database files. Note that the database files are not required when

using the RunĆTime Programming Executive software, and can be

deleted from the diskettes that will be provided to the site.
What is Transferred?
The information that the Executive software keeps for an entity

(system, section, rack, or task) is considered to be part of that entity

when transferring. This means that when a rack, for example, is

transferred, its description, location, and engineer may be changed

at the destination, and this information will be brought back when the

rack is transferred back to the site manager.
