Hi,

I am with some problems when I'm using the transfer function. I've tried
with another computer with the same version of SAC and it's working. But in
my computer it appears the following error:

SAC> transfer from polezero s
SAC_PZs_IP_PMST_BHE__2009.091.00.00.00.0000_99999.9999.24.60.60.99999 to
none
ERROR 2110: Illegal option in POLEZERO file:

I don't understand the error. Can you help me with this problem?

Thanks a lot
Best Regards

    One thing to check is line endings, which differ depending on the OS.
    What is the operating system for the computer with a problem? Is it the
    same as on the computers that work? You can test for the type of line
    endings by doing something like

    od -ta JCC.bhz.pz | less

    0000000 Z E R O S sp 3 nl P O L E S sp 5 nl
    0000020 - 0 . 0 3 7 0 sp sp 0 . 0 3 7 0 nl

    If you get anything other than "nl" at the end of each line, that may be
    the problem.

    Not related to your problem, but I suggest you add something like

    FREQ 0.004 0.007 0.2 0.4

    to your command. See the discussion in
