Setup Options

Enter the Options dialog from the Toolbar.

Sound Effects: Switch the beep and digitised sound on or off.

Continue Download when disconnected: If you are disconnected from the Internet ByteCatcher can reconnect for you and after a delay time it will try to log on and continue downloading the files you selected. You can adjust the delay time to match how long it takes you to connect to your Internet Service Provider. Windows NT users must make sure the Remote Access settings are checked to allow redial on link failure. This option is found in the Options/Redial Settings menu.

Connect Settings: The port number is the Internet port the FTP server is set up to listen on. 21 is the standard port number. You can adjust the number of times ByteCatcher will attempt to connect, the delay between connection attempts and how long ByteCatcher will wait while trying to connect.

Force Computer to Shut Down after Download: If you click Yes here Windows will be shut down after all files selected have been downloaded. If you are disconnected before all files are downloaded it will reconnect and finish downloading, then shut down the computer.

Mode: Set the mode to Binary for most files. Ascii mode is used to downlod text documents from Unix Servers.
