xreceive

Use the xreceive command to send (upload) a copy of a file from your system to a remote system using XMODEM protocol. (Use xtransmit to download files using XMODEM protocol.)

To use xreceive, you will usually need to follow these steps:

  1. Start the remote system's XMODEM file transfer program. (Your manual for using the remote system or the remote system operator will be able to help you with this and with the next two steps.)
  2. Make sure the remote XMODEM settings are appropriate.
  3. Use the appropriate command(s) to tell the remote system to begin sending a file using XMODEM protocol.
  4. Press the change key to return to Autolog's command prompt.
  5. Make sure Autolog's x1k and xcrc settings are appropriate.
  6. Enter the command:
xreceive file name

You can transfer only one file at a time using xreceive.

The xreceive command supports these options:
