2.4.1 Program manager

The program manager offers an optimum overview of the directories and programs, and very
easy-to-use file handling. It supports plain names of up to 24 characters for directories and files.
Subdirectories can also be managed on external storage media such as CF cards, USB sticks
and on the NC.
All storage media including the network drives are displayed in the program manager. The part
programs can be edited in all media. You can create, paste, copy, delete and cut programs via
the horizontal softkey bar.
In the program manager, you can use standard Windows short-cuts such as CTRL+C,
CTRL+X, and CTRL+V.
