- Transfer/Cancel Transfer: This function is used to cancel a file transfer

- Transfer/Disconnect: Disconnects the communication link between

the PC and Allegro. This action tells the Field Computer to stop
waiting for additional commands from the PC. Otherwise you will
have to press the ESC key on the Field Computer to return to normal
function. If you need to communicate with more than one Field
Computer, you must click the Disconnect button before switching the
serial cable to the next Field Computer. When the communication link
between the Allegro and the PC is disconnected, the Lynx Remote

screen no longer displays “Connected” every second.
