Setting Up the Units
Flash applications will transfer only between certain units. For example, you can transfer
an App from a TI-89 Titanium to another TI-89 Titanium, or from a TI-89 Titanium to a TI-
89.
During transmission, a progress bar is displayed in the status line of the receiving unit.
When transmission is complete, the
VAR-LINK
screen is updated on the receiving unit.
Note:
Before transferring a purchased App, the receiving unit must have the appropriate
certificate, if required. A certificate is a file that is generated by TI. Free and concept
Apps do not require a certificate.
Rules for Transmitting Variables, Flash Applications, or Folders
Unlocked and unarchived variables that have the same name on both the sending and

archived variables have the same names on both the sending and receiving units, a
