Calling the file manager
Press the PGM MGT key: The TNC displays the file
management window (see figure at top right for
default setting. If the TNC displays a different screen
layout, press the WINDOW soft key.)
The narrow window at left shows three drives
(1)
. If the TNC is
connected to a network, it also displayed the connected network
drives. Drives designate devices with which data are stored or
transferred. One drive is the hard disk of the TNC. Other drives are the
interfaces (RS232, RS422, Ethernet), which can be used, for example,
to connect a personal computer. The selected (active) drive is shown
in a different color.
In the lower part of the narrow window the TNC shows all directories
(2)
of the selected drive. A drive is always identified by a file symbol
to the left and the directory name to the right. The TNC displays a
subdirectory to the right of and below its parent directory. The
selected (active) directory is depicted in a different color.
The wide window at right
3
shows you all of the files that are stored
in the selected directory. Each file is shown with additional information
that is illustrated in the table on the next page.
