Calling the file manager
Press the PGM MGT soft key: The TNC displays the
file management window. (The figure at top right
shows the basic settings. If the TNC shows a
different screen layout, press the WINDOW soft key.)
The narrow window at left 1 shows the available drives and
directories. 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. A drive is always identified by a file
symbol to the left and the directory name to the right. The control
displays a subdirectory to the right of and below its parent directory. A
box with the + symbol in from of the folder symbol indicates that there
are further subdirectories, which can be shown with the –/+ key or
ENT.
The wide window at right 2 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 below.
