Issue 5 October 2002 465555-233-506
Combining tasks
When you combine copying (the get command) and moving (the put command)
announcement files, you can rearrange VAL announcements.
Before you start
Know the IP address, the filename, and location of the destination VAL
circuit pack to which you are moving an announcement (
list directory
board
).
Instructions
To move an announcement to a VAL circuit pack from another VAL circuit pack
in an FTP session:
1. Ensure that the steps in ‘‘Setting up an FTP session’’ are complete.
NOTE:
You must first establish an FTP session into the circuit pack from
which you are restoring an announcement.
2. List the directory contents and ensure that the announcement file is among
those listed.
3. At the FTP client, type
get filename.wav and press RETURN.
Example:

A copy of the file is written to the directory from which you initiated the
FTP session.
4. List the FTP client directory contents to ensure that the announcement is
among those listed.
5. Terminate the FTP session (see ‘‘Ending an FTP session’’) to the circuit
pack from which you copied the announcement file.
6. Set up a new FTP session into the destination VAL circuit pack (see
‘‘Setting up an FTP session’’).

put filename.wav and press RETURN.
Example:
put Closed.wav
8. List the VAL announcement directory contents to ensure that the
