360 Systems DigiCart/EX - Manual (Page 87)

NOTE: A transfer can be canceled by pressing either the
STOP
or
EXIT
buttons. You’ll be
prompted to confirm before the transfer is aborted.
During the transfer the display will update the completion percentage of the transfer as it progresses.
When transferring drives or directories, the file number within the group updates as each individual
file transfer is completed.
The display will indicate when the transfer is complete.
Note: D-Net transfers are one way ONLY. There is no communication from the receiving DigiCart
to the source DigiCart. To confirm transfers, you will need to go to the receiving DigiCart. The
receiver status display remains on until any button is pressed.
W ILDCARD T RANSFERS
A powerful feature of D-NET is the ability to perform wildcard transfers. A wildcard transfer is a
simultaneous, selective transfer to multiple machines. To enable a wildcard transfer, the target
machines must share a common component in their receiver names.
For example, you may need to simultaneously transfer from one DigiCart in a production room to all
the DigiCarts in master control. Simply assign “MASTER 1, MASTER 2,…etc.” as receiver names on
the machines in master control. To make a wildcard transfer to all of the machines, use “MASTER *”
as the destination name on the source DigiCart in the production room. The “*” (asterisk)
symbolizes the variable component on all of the receiver names of the machines in master control.
If you set “*” only as the destination name for a transfer, the transfer will be made to every DigiCart
that is enabled to receive transfers. Setting the receiver name to “MAILBOX ONLY” will still block
direct access transfers.

Incomplete Transfer
After a brief error message the display alerts that the transfer was incomplete.
Press
ENTER
or
EXIT
to acknowledge the message.
The display will show the number of files transferred without errors as “FILES SENT”, and the
number of files not sent.
This signifies the number of files transferred without errors and the number of files not sent due
to errors.
Errors in a transmitting unit are extremely rare and indicate a hardware problem in the unit itself not
in the D-NET connections or in the receiving unit.
