Transfer Data Up/Down - xfer
This command is used to transfer the contents of the CAT-1000B memory between the
controller and a computer were it can be stored on disk as a back-up file or used with
the editor program. The memory is divided into eight blocks. Data transfer is
limited to one block at a time using the [xfer] command. Three and a half minutes are
required to transfer each block using the internal 300-baud modem. If the RS-232 4800
baud port is used, block transfer takes approximately twenty seconds. You may change
the file name however you must keep the [.001 through .008] extensions.
