DAS System User Manual
The Operation field provides two selections: Receive From Host and Send To
Host. When you select receive, the system is set to receive data packets from the
host via the mainframe Host port. Selecting function key F8: RECV FILE starts
the file transfer. (When you select receive, the File Name field is no longer a
selectable field; the name of the file to be received from the host is predeter-
mined.) When you select send, the system is set to send data to the host. Select
function key F8: SEND FILE to start the file transfer.
The File Type field specifies the type of field to send or receive. Two main types
of files exist: binary and ASCII. A variety of file formats are supported, ranging
from binary setups and refmems to ASCII printer and symbol table files.
Function key F7: DELETE FILE deletes the file indicated in the File Name field
(and pointed to in the directory by the cursor) from the list of files. To confirm
the delete operation, press the Return key. To abort the delete operation, press the
Escape key.
The label on function key F8 changes based on whether the Operation field is set
to receive or send files. When set to send files, selecting function key F8: SEND
FILE causes the system to transfer the specified file to the host. When set to
receive files, selecting function key F8: RECV FILE prepares the system to
receive a file from the host.
