Disk Functions
The following disk operations are provided by the system.
SAVE: Transferring register contents or the current setup data to files on the
floppy disk. One floppy disk can hold up to 99 files containing snapshot
or key frame effect register contents, or up to four files of setup data, key
memory data, chroma key memory data, wipe snapshots, DME wipe
snapshots, or key snapshots.
LOAD: Loading data from the floppy disk.
• Loading a snapshot, key frame effect, wipe snapshot, DME wipe
snapshot, or key snapshot file transfers the data to a register.
• Loading a key memory file or chroma key memory file overwrites the
current memory contents.
• Loading a setup data file sets up the system according to the settings in
the file.
COPY: Copying a file on the same disk.
DELETE: Deleting a file.
RENAME: Attaching a name to a file on the disk.
FORMAT: Formatting a disk for use.
LABEL: Attaching a label to the disk.
The SAVE, LOAD, COPY and DELETE functions can also be applied to a
block of consecutive registers or files.
Notes
• It is necessary to format a new disk before using it.
• Carrying out a RENAME operation applies the same name to all files of the
same number, even on different channels.
