Binary file transfer

To successfully transfer files containing binary data without incurring any corruption, the RAM uses a designated set of functions to extract and put binary members from an SCM. Once a binary member has been extracted from an SCM, the RAM then hands the member to CARMA390, which continues to pass it along until the member reaches the user’s machine. At each stage of the transfer process, the member is recognized as containing binary data, and no changes are applied to the member because they would result in corruption of the data.
