When viewing a page that has the Path field, if their are any directories available in the root
directory, you will be able to choose them from a list using the alpha wheel, cursor buttons,
or - /+ (Previous/Next) buttons. Then, press the Open soft button to open that directory. The
name of the directory will be displayed in the Path field. For example, if you have a directory
called SOUNDS that is located in the current device’s root directory, the Path field will
appear as:
Path:\SOUNDS\
The backslash character is a directory separator, as in the following Path:
Path: \BACKUP\COVERBAND\SONGS\
This represents the directory SONGS, which is a subdirectory of the COVERBAND
directory, which is a subdirectory of the BACKUP directory in the root directory. If the path
is too long to fit on the display, it gets abbreviated. The maximum length of a path in the
Forte is 64 characters (including the backslash characters).
Using the Open soft button causes you to navigate into directories and their subdirectories,
away from the root directory. To navigate out of subdirectories back towards the root
directory, use the Parent soft button to move one level back from the current directory
