5. Select a format by pressing the adjacent soft key. The format path is now set to the
selected folder on the selected medium.
To set the generator’s path using the command line interface:
1. Establish a session with the generator using either HyperTerminal over a serial
connection or Telnet over an Ethernet LAN. See “ Establishing a terminal session with
the generator ” on page 31 or “ Establishing a Telnet session with the generator ” on page
34.
2. For each file type (format, image, and sequence), set the path parameter to the
corresponding folder on the desired medium. In the command syntax, specify the
medium as follows:
• Flash memory: tffs0 (TFFS - Transaction Flash File System)
• PC card: card0
• File server:
3. For each file type (format, image, and sequence), set the path parameter to the
corresponding folder on local generator media using the following commands:
FMTP /medium/Library/Formats
IMGP /medium/Library/Images
SEQP /medium/Library/Sequences
For example the medium name for the PC card is /card0. So you would enter the
following command to set the image path to the image directory on the PC card:
IMGP /card0/Library/Images
The generator will now display the images on the PC card when you press the
Contents key.
The medium name for the flash memory is /tffs0. So you would enter the following
command to set the image path to the format directory on the flash memory:
FMTP /tffs0/Library/Formats
The generator will now display the formats on the flash memory when you press the
Source key.
The medium name for the network is the server (host name) memory. So you would
enter the following command to set the image path to the format directory on the flash
memory:
SEQP /Server030/Library/Sequences
The generator will now display the sequences on the server when you press the Tools
key and then select sequences.
