System information
can be copied to a prepared portable drive disk and then transferred to
other machines.
To transfer a machine configuration, proceed as follows:
1. Manually set up the first machine.
2. From the Setup Menu select Machine Setup - Machine Setup Menu
Page 2 and press Write Machine Configuration to Jaz Disk. NOTE:
Nothing will be written to the portable drive at this time. The machine will
create configuration files that will be transferred next time a portable
drive is connected to the machine.
3. Connect a portable drive to this machine as described on the previous
page in steps 1 through 6. When finished the disk in the portable drive
will contain the configuration files.
4. Connecting the portable drive to any Black Widow will transfer the con-
figuration automatically to that machine.
NOTE: The configuration files will stay on the disk until intentionally
removed. Use DartComm to Clear Jaz Disk or format the disk and
re-prepare it. Until the files are removed, any Black Widow the drive
is connected to will be reconfigured, whether or not this is desired.
The following items will NOT be transferred during this process:
The Blue Light Special Setup
Time and Date Settings
Machine ID
Arachnet Configuration
Modem Call Window
Top Ten Lists
Credit Report Counters
Popularity Counters
League Information
Operator Screens
For more information on creating and transferring files, see your
Dartman/DartComm literature.
