- communication need at Mainstay. They frequently need to
- transfer files to and from Europe quickly, reliably and in
- a costeffective manner. File transfers to and from Europe
- are made via a satellite link which has a high noise level,
- long return time and high cost. Xmodem file transfers are
- not effective because of these problems. MCS uses X.MS, a
- Mainstay proprietary protocol, which is similar to the
- CCITT X.25 protocol. This eliminates any noise and the
- problem of the long return time.
