How to Set the Transfer Mode Option

You can configure BlueZone FTP to automatically choose the correct "Transfer Mode" by selecting the "Auto" transfer mode.  When "Auto" is selected, you need to set the default transfer mode (Binary or ASCII), then if required, create a list of file extensions that are exceptions to the default Transfer Mode.

For example, if the majority of the files you transfer are program files and other non-text based files, set the default transfer mode to Binary, then add any exceptions like HTML files and TXT files to the Exceptions List located on the Auto Mode tab.

On the other hand, if the majority of the files you transfer are text based files like HTML, INI and TXT files, set the default transfer mode to ASCII, then add any exceptions like EXE files to the Exceptions List located on the Auto Mode tab.

Procedure

1. From MenuBar select Session:Transfer:Options.  The Transfer Options dialog will be displayed.

2. Choose the desired Transfer Mode from the Transfer Mode listbox.

3. Click the OK button.
