Data transfer to/from an external data medium

Before you can transfer data to an external data

medium, you must set up the data interface, See

"Setting up data interfaces".
Depending on the data transfer software you use,

problems can occur occasionally when you transmit

data over a serial interface. They can be overcome by

repeating the transmission.

Call the file manager

Select the screen layout for data transfer: press

the WINDOW soft key. In the left half of the

screen the TNC shows all files in the current

directory. In the right half of the screen it shows all

files saved in the root directory (TNC:\ ).

Use the arrow keys to highlight the file(s) that you want to transfer:
