This investigation was conducted on the global electrodynamics of a viscous resistive disk with an infalling plasma outside. The total magnetic fields corresponding to the magnetic flux function {PSI}(r, z), are governed by the induction equation. In the space outside the disk, we introduce an inflow cone geometry and use it to obtain a far-field solution in terms of the field quantities on the disk surface. The result shows that the poloidal fields have a bottle-like configuration with a special region along the z-axis, such a region is corresponding to the electromagnetic jet solution. A relation between the jet and disk opening angles is found.
