Digicart/II or Instant Replay units, or to configure Shortcut as part of a Loop configuration

Press F
ILES
if you will be transmitting a single file, or press
DIR
if you will be transmitting
a Directory. Select the file or directory to be transferred. Press M ENU and select menu item 7
DNET FILE or DNET DIRECTORY in the Files or Directories menu. (Alternately, press
ZOOM OUT after selecting the file or directory.)
You will be prompted to supply these specifications:
1. A Destination Receiver Name
2. A Location Type (DIRECT ADDRESS or MAILBOX)
3. If Direct Address was selected, you will enter an ID number for the Drive,
Directory and Index Number where you want to place the transmitted file in
the Receiving unit.
4. If the file or directory you selected is recorded at the 48K sampling rate, you
will be prompted to select Dolby  AC-2 encoding or Linear format.
The Receiver Name is used when more than one receiving unit is on line and you want the
transmission to go to a particular unit. If no Receiver Name is necessary, press E NTER . To
enter a Receiver Name use the A LPHANUMERIC K EYS and then E NTER .
Select a Location Type with the S CRUB W HEEL or A RROW K EYS and press E NTER . Direct
Address allows the transmitting unit to specify where the transmitted material will be placed in
the receiving unit. Mailbox is a designated area in a receiver where received files will be placed
to avoid overwriting existing material on the receiver’s disk.
If Direct Address was selected, you will be asked for the ID number for the location in
the receiving unit to place the transmitted material. The ID number defaults to Drive 1,
Directory 0 (suitable for transmission to an Instant Replay, which has only drive 1, directory
0). The cursor starts out on the first digit of the Index Number. To place the cursor on the
Drive or Directory number, backspace or rotate the S
CRUB W HEEL to the left. To enter the index
number, use the N
UMERIC
K
EYS
.
When transmitting a directory to a Direct Address, the index number supplied represents
the first index number to be used. Each file after the first will be placed on the next index
number. These index numbers will be used regardless of whether they contain audio or not, so
it is important to be aware of what a Directory Transfer will overwrite in the receiving unit.
Count the files in the directory to be transferred. Don’t forget to include the _CLIPBOARD
file or delete it before transferring. Then check the receiving unit to see if any important files
exist in the range of Index numbers from the specified Index number to that needed to
accommodate the transferred directory.
