Receive File Through the Serial Port (continued)
Example: To receive the file
SHIPPING.BIN
on the terminal’s drive C by using the
XMODEM
protocol through COM1, use this command:
.%X1,c:shipping.bin
Batch Transfer: To transfer a batch of files to the terminal by using the
YMODEM
protocol, use your
serial communications package to start the transfer. You usually select a batch of files
using a wild card file specification. The host must send only the filename and extension,
not the drive and directory path in the data stream.
Next, use this command to receive the files on the T2420 or T2425:
.%Y
n,drive:
For example, to receive the files through COM1 to drive C on the terminal, use this
command:
.%Y1,c:
All files that match the wild card specification are transferred from the host and received
to drive C on the terminal. If any file does not transfer, the remainder of the batch
transfer is aborted.

D:\USERDATA

fromfilename field.
