3.3During File Transfer

During a file transfer, a status window provides information about the transfer. For most users, the most important information is the percentage of the file transferred. This figure can be used to estimate when the file transfer will end.

Other activities cannot be performed with Remote Maintenance until the file transfer is complete. However, transferring files does not interfere with the voice mail system on the host computer. The voice mail system continues to answer calls while the file transfer is in progress.

If the File Transfer Fails

Under some circumstances, the system may fail to transfer a file because of a poor telephone connection between the host and remote computers.

If an error occurs during a file transfer, Remote Maintenance attempts to correct it several times. If the problem persists, the transfer is eventually aborted. The number of errors is displayed in a status window. If problems persist with a transfer, try disconnecting and calling again to establish a better connection.
