D-Net File Transfer

If desired, use the

Left

and

Right POSITION

buttons to select alternate menu items. Confirm your

option choice by pressing the

ENTER

button.

Receiver Names and Destination Names

Each DigiCart/E may be assigned a receiver name to identify it as the “target” for a file transfer from
another DigiCart. This is especially useful when multiple DigiCarts are daisy-chained for D-Net
transfers. When initiating a file transfer, enter the name of the intended receiver DigiCart on the
source DigiCart.

If a DigiCart/E is not assigned a receiver name, it will receive all transfers (sent with or without a
receiver name), provided the destination drive and directory are valid. For most systems, if you plan to
use receiver names, each unit should have a unique receiver name. Duplicate receiver names can be
assigned to units that are intended to be mirrored redundant backups.

Assigning a Receiver Name

To assign a receiver name select DNET FILE TRANSFER from the Utility menu. Rotate
the

selection knob

until the RECEIVER NAME option appears. Press the

ENTER

button.

The display will prompt for a new Receiver Name.

Using the

selection knob

and the navigation arrow buttons, enter the new Receiver Name.

The name can have from 1 to 15 characters consisting of any combination of letters, digits,
dashes and spaces. Leading and trailing spaces are not significant and are removed when
the name is saved. When you have spelled out the new Receiver Name, press the

Right

NAVIGATION ARROW

button until the cursor is to the right of the last character in the new

destination name. Press the

ENTER

button to save the new name. The display will show

the new Receiver Name.

To erase a Receiver Name and allow a DigiCart/E to receive all transfers, regardless of
destination name select DNET FILE TRANSFER from the Utility menu. Rotate the
selection knob

until the RECEIVER NAME option appears. Press the

ENTER

button

twice. The display will show the Receiver Name set to (NONE – RECEIVE ALL).

Echo Function

If your D-NET network is configured in a “Daisy Chain,” or loop, and the Echo Function is ON, you
will be able to relay the incoming transfer to the digital input of a DigiCart/E to the digital output on
that machine and on to the next DigiCart/E in the network.

To set ECHO DURING RECEIVE on a DigiCart/E select DNET FILE TRANSFER from the Utility
menu. Rotate the selection knob

to set ECHO DURING RECEIVE to ON or OFF.

Confirm the setting by pressing

ENTER

, or abandon it by pressing

EXIT

.
