Select / Save Lists - File Management

File select windows as Load Waveform, Select List or New List offer access to functions for loading
and saving user data. Lists, Complex modulation and control data or Waveforms are handled within
these windows.
A file select menu consists of several areas.
In the upper area recent data sets the files last used are listed; a maximum of ten files is displayed.
The available drives and directories are displayed on the left side, the files of the selected directory on
the right side. The currently selected path is displayed above the windows. Only the relevant files are
displayed without file extensions. If the area is opened several times, the path last selected is displayed.
When a file is saved or created, its name is user-selectable; the extension is assigned automatically
and cannot be entered. The file is saved to the selected path.
Operation is similar to the operation of menus with several areas (see section "Selecting and Exiting a
Dialog Area - Setting Parameters" on page 3.18):
By using the cursor keys, the area is marked; the entry focus is shifted to this area by using the
Enter
key. The up/down cursor keys will then navigate only within this area. By using the left/right cursor keys,
it is possible to switch between the directory tree and the file list. The subdirectories of the selected
directory will only be displayed after a short delay to allow quick navigation in the directory tree.
Pressing the key again shifts the entry focus up one level. The button for saving or loading the file
Esc
can be selected and pressed. After selecting the file, a menu is closed automatically.
