Making A File Transfer

To receive a transfer into your DigiCart/II Plus:

Must be connected to the source DigiCart/II Plus.

Must be turned on.

Must be enabled to receive file transfers.

Must not be playing or recording.

If your DigiCart/II Plus has a Receiver name programmed, the

transmission must be for that Name or a wildcard that matches it.

Before beginning, you must decide if you want to transfer a cut, a directory, or an entire
drive. However, if you have begun transfer setup, you may use the SELECT control to
choose a higher layer transfer without having to begin again. You could, for example,
begin the setup for transferring a single cut and choose instead to transfer the entire
directory or drive in which the cut resides.
