File Management
Each weaving pattern is stored in a WIF-file. The dobby has an internal hard drive or
storage (this is identified as ‘Local’). It is not possible to create folders for file
organization, on the Local hard drive. This storage space is mainly intended to store
the current weaving file. A USB stick is more convenient to use as storage, as it
allows you to create a folder layout. To create and manage the folders on a USB
stick, use your PC or laptop. The web interface includes some features to manage
the files in the Local folder.
