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.
