Calling the file manager
Press the
PGM MGT
key
The control displays the file management
window (see figure for default setting. If the
control displays a different screen layout, press
the
WINDOW
soft key).
The narrow window on the left shows the available drives and
directories. Drives designate devices with which data are stored
or transferred. A drive is the internal memory of the control.
Other drives are the interfaces (RS232, Ethernet) to which you
can connect a PC for example. A directory is always identified by
a folder symbol to the left and the directory name to the right.
Subdirectories are shown to the right of and below their parent
directories. If there are subdirectories, you can show or hide them
using the
-/+
key.
If the directory tree is longer than the screen, navigate using the
scroll bar or a connected mouse.
The wide window on the right shows you all files that are stored
in the selected directory. Each file is shown with additional
information, illustrated in the table below.
