DTX-PRO DTX-PROX Reference Manual
A knowledge of terms is required to understand the functions and operations of the
Menu/File
section. This section explains the terminology
used in the
MENU/File
section.
File
The term “file” is used to define a set of data saved on a USB flash drive. Data exchanged between the PRO series modules and a USB
flash drive is carried out in the form of files.
File name
The name given to the file is called a file name. Files names are important for distinguishing files, and the same file name cannot be used
in the same directory. While computers can handle long names, and even include non-English characters, the PRO series modules can only
use alphanumeric characters.
Extensions
The “ three letters,” such as “
.wav
” at the end of the file name, is referred to as a “file extension.” The extension indicates the type
of file. Files that the PRO series modules use have a “
.bin
” extension, which is not displayed on the PRO series modules screen.
File size
This refers to the size of the file. The file size is determined by the amount of data saved in the file. File size is measured in units indicated
with a B (byte). Large files and also the memory capacity of devices are represented using units of KB (kilobytes), MB (megabytes), and
GB (gigabytes). 1KB=1024B, 1MB=1024KB, and 1GB=1024MB.
Format
Initializing the USB flash drive is known as “formatting.” Formatting a USB flash drive using the PRO series modules will erase all files
and directories (folders).
Save, load
“Save” refers to the writing of data to a USB flash drive, while “load” refers to the reading of files from a USB flash drive.
• The PRO series modules can handle a maximum of 1,000 “
.wav
” files, and 1,000 “
.bin
” files.
• The DTX-PRO files saved on a USB flash drive the can be loaded to the DTX-PROX, but the reproduction of the saved settings may not be
completely accurate.
