	The following are some of the options you have for transfering
files between a PC and the HP1000:

	1) Kermit - This is available from one or more of the following:
		    a) INTEREX - The HP International User Group
		       585 Maude Court
		       P.O. Box 3439
		       Sunnyvale, CA 94088-3439

		    b) CUCCA (Columbia University Computer Center)
		       New York, N.Y. 10027

		    c) Don Wright - ICT Co.
		       Lake Elmo, Minn.

	2) AdvanceLink on the PC (HP Part# 68333F) and MONITOR on the HP1000.
	   MONITOR is supplied with RTE-A. 

	3) Reflections (available from Walker, Richer and Quinn in Seattle) on
	   the PC and XMODM on the 1000. XMODM is available through INTEREX.	

Both AdvanceLink and Reflections are terminal emulator and file transfer 
programs available on the PC. I use AdvanceLink most often, but have used
both Reflections and Kermit in the past.

	Both the C and D versions of the mux card (12040C/D) can be configured
to disable ENQ/ACK and enable XON/XOFF. So, this should work. However, if you
are using the 12005A (Async Interface Card) then you will have to update your
software to a later rev (5.2 has just been released), in order to get the
newest drivers for that card (ID100 and DDC00). The newer drivers allow you
to disable ENQ/ACK and enable XON/XOFF.

	I hope this helps.
