6000 Series user’s manual Quick start
TRANSFER.EXE, REMDISK.EXE, and REMSERV.EXE are located on
the PC Microcontroller BIOS drive, in the DOS directory, and on the PC
Microcontroller utility disk in the \DOS directory. Refer to the Software
utilities chapter for more information on these programs.
Note XMODEM only transfers files in which the file size is exactly on a
128 byte boundary. If the file size does not fall exactly on the boundary,
XMODEM automatically rounds the file size up to the next 128 byte
boundary with padding characters. For example, a file with a size of
10,000 bytes, will be rounded up to 10,112 bytes, transferred, and
written with the new file size. In most cases, this is not a concern, but
in some instances the XMODEM padding causes problems. The pad-
ding problems become apparent when an application program is expect-
ing a specific file size or is expecting characters other than the padding
characters to be at the end of the file.
The following information on downloading files between the PC Micro-
