The XMODEM transmission procedure is completed by a receiving program and a
sending program: The receiving program sends negotiation characters to
negotiate a packet checking method. After the negotiation, the sending program
starts to transmit data packets. When receiving a complete packet, the receiving
program checks the packet using the agreed method. If the check succeeds, the
receiving program sends an acknowledgement character and the sending program
proceeds to send another packet; otherwise, the receiving program sends a
negative acknowledgement character and the sending program retransmits the
packet.
