TRANSFER ZMODEM<br />

Purpose Statement for transferring data files using ZMODEM communication<br />

protocol.<br />

Syntax TRANSFER ↔ Z[MODEM][,[,[,sexp 4 >]]]<br />

specifies the direction of the transmission by the expression "S "<br />

(= send) or "R" (= receive).<br />

is, optionally, the name of the file transmitted from the printer<br />

(default "ZMODEM.FILE").<br />

specifies, optionally, the input device as "uart1:", "uart2:",<br />

"uart3:", "uart4:", or "uart5:" (default: std IN channel).<br />

specifies, optionally, the output device as "uart1:", "uart2:",<br />

"uart3:", "uart4:", or "uart5:" (default: std OUT channel).<br />

Remarks ZMODEM is a protocol for serial transfer of a complete file between for<br />

example a PC and a printer. For more information on the ZMODEM protocol,<br />

please refer to http://www.omen.com. Related instructions are the<br />

external commands RZ (receive data using the ZMODEM protocol) and<br />

SZ (send data using the ZMODEM protocol).<br />

TRANSFER ZMODEM can only handle one single file at a time.<br />

When transmitting files from the printer to the host, carefully observe possible<br />

restrictions concerning the number of characters etc. in the file name,<br />

that is imposed by the operating system of the host.<br />

When receiving a file, you must start the transmission within 30 seconds<br />

from completing the TRANSFER ZMODEM "R" statement. The printer<br />

will store the file in the current directory "/c", "tmp:", or "card1:", see<br />

CHDIR statement. (Obviously, files cannot be received into "/rom".) If<br />

there already exists a file in the current directory with the same name as<br />

the one to be transferred, the existing file will be replaced by the new file.<br />

Thus, it is up to you to keep record of the files already stored in the current<br />

directory (see FILES statement). Before transfer, give the new file a name<br />

that is not already occupied by an existing file, unless you want to replace<br />

the existing file. If you use TRANSFER ZMODEM to download a font or<br />

image file, the font or image will automatically be installed after the downloading<br />

is completed without any need for a reboot.<br />

Examples Setting up the printer for file reception on the standard IN channel:<br />

TRANSFER ZMODEM "R"<br />

Transmission from printer to host of the file "FILE1.TXT" on a channel<br />

other than the standard OUT channel:<br />

TRANSFER Z "S","FILE1.TXT","uart2:","uart2:"<br />
