Transfer facsimile images to a remote computer
Transfers facsimile images from the current computer to a remote computer.
- FAXOPT(FAC)
- Facsimile option. Distinguishes between facsimiles created in normal ADAPS processing, named FAC*;IMG, and manually created facsimiles, named FAX*;IMG. See User Note 1.
= FAC: Transfer facsimiles matching FAC*;IMG = FAX: Transfer facsimiles matching FAX*;IMG
- INDIR(--)
- Input directory. Directory where the facsimiles are located. The default is ADAPSFAX.
- OUTSYS("VAXA")
- Output system. Remote computer system where the facsimiles will be transferred to.
- DSTDIR(PRO:[AVHRR.FAX])
- Destination directory. Directory on the remote computer where the facsimiles will be placed.
- LOGFILE(--)
- Log file. Name of the log file to which processing messages will be appended. The default is FAXTRANS;LOG in ADAPSLOG.
FAXTRANS will continually search the directory ADAPSFAX for facsimile images matching "FAC*;IMG" and transfer them to the PRO:[AVHRR.FAX] directory on the remote computer VAXA. All processing messages will be written to the log file "FAXTRANS;LOG" in the ADAPSLOG directory.
FAXTRANS will search the directory [SMITH.FAX] for facsimile images matching "FAX*;IMG" and transfer them to the [SMITH.FAX] directory on the remote computer SGS4. When no facsimiles are found, FAXTRANS will complete successfully. All processing messages will be written to the log file "[SMITH.LOGS]MYLOG;LOG".
FAXTRANS will transfer facsimile images from the current computer to a remote computer. When FAXOPT=FAC, FAXTRANS continually searches INDIR for facsimile images matching "FAC*;IMG" and transfers them to the remote computer. When FAXOPT=FAX, facsimile images matching "FAX*;IMG" are transferred from INDIR to the remote computer until all facsimiles have been transferred. The user may specify the directory from which facsimiles are to be transferred, to which computer they will be transferred, the remote directory where they will be placed, and a log file for all of the processing messages. The default values will continually transfer all of the facsimiles that are automatically generated by the AVHRR Data Acquisition and Processing System (ADAPS) to the system used for printing facsimiles.
Upon successful transfer to the remote computer, the facsimile images are deleted from INDIR. If an error is encountered while transferring a facsimile, it will be moved into the ADAPSERR directory.
The facsimile image was not deleted from the current computer system. This facsimile should be deleted.
The specified facsimile image was not unlocked properly. The file "<xxxxx>;lock" should be deleted from the directory INDIR.
Parameter <xxxxx> was specified incorrectly. Both INDIR and DSTDIR must be directory paths without a file name. Correct any mistakes in the directory specification.
FAXTRANS was unable to retrieve the value of the environment or logical variable <xxxxx>. Ensure the variable is set appropriately.
A fatal error was encountered. The error displayed before this one is the specific error that was encountered.
An error was encountered while using IMGNCP to transfer the facsimile image <xxxxx>. Refer to the user's guide for IMGNCP for the appropriate action.
An error occurred while retrieving a log file key for the facsimile image. Contact the system administrator.
An error occurred locking a facsimile image. Ensure INDIR has write permission for the user.
An error occurred setting up for transferring facsimiles. This may include finding the location of the facsimiles or setting up the log file. Contact the system administrator if this error occurs.
An error was returned by the system while FAXTRANS was suspended waiting for facsimile images. The user most likely terminated FAXTRANS.
