Is there a way to select mulitple files for transfer to floppy on an Acramatic 2100? The machine is a Tree VMC 1060. Never touched one before.
I just started a new job Monday. The machine has 497 programs in memory and needs to be emptied.
My boss was complaining about having to transfer one file at a time.
I suggested locating the directory that the programs are stored in, then booting the machine from floppy, (since the Siemens software is running on NT, NTFS Reader should be able to boot the machine's computer and read/write/copy from the NTFS partition) and then select multiple files for transfer.
I brought in the boot disk today, but my boss would rather see a solution within the normal interface.
What's really needed is a DNC setup. That- and the solution to selecting multiple files... and then someone needs to start saving programs after they've been run, not a year later, lol. Organizing all those programs should be a lot of fun too.
I have a copy of Procomm Plus that I never put into service, so I already told my boss I'd donate that towards a DNC setup.
Does anyone know of a way to select multiple files for transfer from within the user interface on the Acramatic 2100?
Thanks!
