press MENU SET when the proper file is selected. There is also a range selection,
either 00-99 or 000-299.
3- Write to New .TD2 File
This is used to create a new file of register data on the USB drive. Once the function
is selected, you will be able to enter an eight-character (or fewer) filename, and
select the range of cues you want to save (0-99 or 0-299). Once in this mode, the
characters may be selected by the jog knob, and stepped from one to the next by the
'+' and '-' buttons on the keypad. Once the name is entered press the MENU SET
button to go to the next step. The filename should be at least two characters long.
Note that the filename entered must meet the criteria for 8.3 filenames in that spaces
are not allowed. The .td2 extension will be appended automatically.
4- Read Menu File to TDC
This is used to read a .tds file containing menu settings to the TDC-100B. These
files contain information about the firmware version of the TDC-100B frame from
which the file was written. The version number in the file is compared with the
current version of firmware in the frame of the TDC-100B, and warning is displayed if
the versions differ. This is because menu items may have changed between
different versions and the file may not give you the settings you expect.
The menu items for the original TDC-100 version 3.4 or 3.5 are the same as the
TDC-100B running Version 1.0, and may be safely loaded.
5- Overwrite Menu File
Replaces an existing .tds file on the drive with the current menu data
6- Write New Menu File
Writes a new .tds file to the drive. Name entry works the same way as in (3) above.
7- Set Time
Since any files written to the USB drive are time and date stamped, the TDC-100B
has a clock which can be set when in USB mode. This function provides that
capability. The clock will continue to run for about one week when the TDC-100B is
powered off, so it will maintain accurate time so long as the TDC-100B is powered up
from time to time.
The current time will be displayed on the top line, and you can enter a time on the
bottom line with the numeric keypad. Press MENU SET to transfer the keyed-in
time to the clock.
8- Set Date
Same as above for the date. Date data is displayed and entered in the mm-dd-yy
format.
Any time a file is open on the USB drive (reading or writing), the
red LED
next to the
drive socket will be lit. You should not remove the drive until this LED is off.
