Transferring a file using ATE

Use this procedure to transfer a file from a local host to the remote system.

Verify that all of the following prerequisites and conditions are met before attempting to transfer a file using ATE:

A connection must already be established using the ATE program.
The Xmodem file transfer protocol must already exist on both the local and remote systems. On the operating system, Xmodem is located in the /usr/bin directory.

Run the following xmodem command on the remote system after logging in:
```
xmodem -r newfile
```
where r is the Xmodem flag to receive and newfile is the name of the file to be received. This name does not need to be the same as the file being transferred.
Press Enter.
The following message is displayed:
```
ate: 0828-005 The system is ready to receive file newfile. Use Ctrl-X to stop xmodem.
```
If the message is not displayed, the system might not have the xmodem program installed or located in its command PATH.
Press Ctrl-V to return to the ATE CONNECTED MAIN MENU.
Press the S key to send a file.

The following message is displayed:

Type the name of the file you wish to send and press Enter. To use the last
file name (), just press Enter.

Enter the name and full path of the file to be transferred.
Press Enter.

ATE will display the following message and begin to transfer the file:

ate: 0828-024 The program is ready to send file newfile. You will receive another 
message when the file transfer is complete.
ate: 0828-025 The system is sending block 1.
ate: 0828-025 The system is sending block 2.
ate: 0828-015 The file transfer is complete.

Press Enter when the transfer is complete.
