傳送資料
To use Data Exchange to Send Data, you must already have an RCS User ID and Password. To find out more about how to get one, see the Register page.
If you run Selector SQL, you may only send your data to other users of Selector SQL. If you also have Linker, the recipient does not also need to have Linker, but they will not have access to the Linker data. Your recipient will also need permission to license the database Call Letters you send them. Be sure to arrange this in advance.
The first time you send data with Data Exchange, the system will open a web page containing the Data Exchange Terms of Service agreement. Read the agreement and if you accept it, click the I ACCEPT button at the bottom.
- 要傳送資料,請開啟RCS功能表並點擊工具。
- 選取要發送的資料庫。
- 在「檔案」功能表上,選擇「資料交換」 然後選擇「傳送資料庫」。 首次執行此操作時,將顯示「客戶資訊」視窗:

- 您至少需在相應欄位中填寫您的姓名、您工作的電台或公司以及您的電子郵件位址。 點擊確定。 此視窗在資料交換期間將不再顯示,但如果您稍後想更改任何內容,可以點選“説明”,然後選擇RCS功能表中的客戶資訊。

- 一旦「客戶資訊」視窗具備最少的必需資訊,「傳送資料」功能表選項將顯示「傳送資料庫」視窗。 填寫其餘項目:
- RCS User ID: your RCS UserID goes here. In some cases this is the same as your email address. This value comes from the Email Address field on the Customer Information window (on the Help menu). If it is incorrect, open the Customer Information window to change it.RCS Password: type your RCS password in this box.Get One Now button: If your email address is on file at RCS, click this button to go to the RCS web site to request a User ID and Password via email.To: Put the email address of the person to whom you are sending the data. The data is not emailed to them, but a notification to pick up the database is sent when the data has been fully uploaded. The email address used here can be anyone’s email address, but only people who have Selector will be able to use the data you send them. If you wish to specify more than one recipient, put in multiple email addresses in this box with a comma separating each one. To send the data to RCS Support in New York, enter support@rcsworks.com.
Subject: (optional) This will be the subject line of the email notification sent to the recipient(s).
Message: (optional) This will be a text message which the email notification sent to the recipient(s) contains. Do not put your secret password in this message.
Private Password: (optional but recommended) Type a hard-to-guess password in this box. This will encrypt your database before sending it to RCS, and it will remain encrypted on the RCS server. The Recipient will need the Private Password in order to retrieve the database. Without this password, no one (including RCS) can access the database you are sending without resorting to sophisticated cryptographic password cracking. Give the Private password to the Recipient(s) through some other method than Data Exchange (such as private email, phone calls, etc.) NOTE: RCS strongly suggests you use a Private Password on all transmissions.
Server: There is only one selection available in this box. You may leave the setting as is.
Allow only one download per recipient: This control is no longer used.
Keep on the RCS server for [ ] days: This control is no longer used. Your data will be available for download for seven days.
Data to Send: In this box you indicate whether you wish to send a previous data backup or send the current database. If sending a previous backup, a pick list of available backups appears when you send. If you choose the current database, a fresh backup will be taken during the Send operation.
- Click the Send button to send the data. The software will display the progress of sending the data to RCS. Depending on your internet connection speed this will take several seconds to several minutes. The message “Data sent successfully” appears when the transfer is complete.
- 當您的資料庫在RCS伺服器上已可使用時,將向您指定的每個收件者發送電子郵件。 根據RCS資料交換伺服器的繁忙程度,這可能需要幾分鐘才能發送電子郵件通知。
注意:
- RCS建議您在上傳時和在RCS伺服器上使用私人密碼對資料進行加密。 您的收件者將需要此密碼。
- 不要在主旨或訊息中包含資料庫的專用密碼。 將分別傳送給收件者。
- 存儲在RCS伺服器上的資料將在七天期限過後銷毀。
- 同一資料庫的每次上傳都是資料交換伺服器上的單獨備份。 但是,當您將資料發送給多個收件者時,在單次傳輸中會將相同的資料傳送給每個收件者。
- 每個資料庫最多可以在RCS伺服器上保留 7 天。
追蹤已發送的項目
You may log in to the RCS web site to manage the Data Exchange databases you have sent using the My Data Exchange page. This page shows you the available databases, which ones have been downloaded and the Pickup IDs. It also shows any Databases that have been sent to you.

- 點擊確定並繼續。 將出現「接收資料庫」 視窗:

- 如果寄件者對此資料庫使用了專用密碼,則必須在「專用密碼」中輸入該密碼。
- 在「目標資料庫」中,選擇是在電腦上創建新資料庫(「新建」)以包含發送給您的資料,還是要覆蓋現有資料庫(以及要覆蓋的資料庫)。 如果創建新資料庫,則應命名該資料夾以包含新資料庫。
