changes the MTG100 and MTG300 MPEG Generators can make to

Functional Overview
This subsection contains descriptions of the front-panel controls, LCD display,
and the rear-panel connectors and power switch.
Figure 2-1 shows the locations of the front panel controls. Descriptions of the
front-panel controls appear on the following pages.
ONā/āSTBY Power Switch. Use the ON/STBY power switch as the standard power
switch during normal instrument operation instead of the rear-panel Principle
Power Switch. The Principal Power Switch must be in the On position before the
ON/STBY power switch will operate.
Floppy Disk Drive. Use the floppy disk drive to save and load a insertion file or
preset file. This drive accepts preformatted 2HD 3.5 inch floppy disks.
NOTE. If you power on the instrument with a floppy disk inserted into the disk
drive, the system can not boot and no information appears on the screen. If this
happens, eject the floppy disk from the disk drive, and turn off the instrument
and then turn it on again.
