3.6.2 GENERAL INFORMATION ON FILE MENU
The operation and the terms in the FILE menu are mostly identical with those used
for the file management on personal computers. A switcher system may be seen
as a PC network in which the various E-boxes and panels represent a PC.
A 3.5” HD floppy disk with a capacity of 1.44 MB is used as storage medium. The
FILE menu serves to create, copy and delete directories or to delete, copy, rename
etc. individual files. Files can also be transferred between the individual units
(devices) in the network.
The FILE menu consists of a left and right overview window. Depending on the sys-
tem hierarchy, these windows permit the selection of the devices, the directory
structure or the individual files. During a copying procedure, the system will show
the source file in one window and the destination in the other. The left window may
contain the directory structure and the right window the files of the current directory.
One window can also be used to show the contents of a disk in another control
panel.
