Transfer files XModem/YModem

[ozamorano]

I would like to know how to transfer files over Xmodem/YModem. I set my router on xmodem mode to get or put config file buy cannot retrieve or send any file. (connected through serial port). I can do it without any problem using hyperterminal (windows) but cannot with get-console iphone app. Please help.

To send file via Xmodem you select the file from your local file repository in Get Console app - ie files that have been downloaded from dropbox or our remote website into Get Console Local file storage. Once they are in there you can tap them and one of the options for the file will be "Send via Serial Cable". This will invoke the xmodem upload feature using the xmodem protocol as selected in the main Get Console settings.

For uploading to cisco routers, from our testing the best protocol is "Xmodem-1K"

Hope that helps.

Thank you for your reply.
Is it possible to download a file from a router to store it on my iphone/dropbox?

At present the X/Y Modem is from iPhone/iPad to send to the Serial device, but not the other way around. You can however use the built in TFTP server to copy files from devices in both directions, assuming your serial device also has an IP network.
