6 – Direct folder function
You can assign folders on an SD card or USB flash drive to the
main unit FOLDER/TRACK SELECT (1–10/0) buttons. When you
press a button with an assigned folder, you can immediately
select that folder on the SD card or USB flash drive and start
playback.
A folder that has been assigned to a main unit FOLDER/TRACK
SELECT (1–10/0) button using this function is called a "direct
folder".
A maximum of 10 direct folders can be assigned.
NOTE
• The direct folder function can only be used with SD cards
and USB flash drives. It cannot be used with audio or data
CDs.
• The main unit FOLDER/TRACK SELECT (1–10/0) buttons
and the remote number (1–10/0) buttons can be used in the
same way.
• You can assign direct folders to the main unit FOLDER/
TRACK SELECT (1–10/0) buttons for each SD card and USB
flash drive.
• You cannot mix the direct folder assignments of the main
unit FOLDER/TRACK SELECT (1–10/0) buttons between an
SD card and a USB flash drive.

Saving direct folder settings

With this unit, direct folder assignments that have been made
for the main unit FOLDER/TRACK SELECT (1–10/0) buttons
(direct folder settings) are automatically saved to each SD card
and USB flash drive.
This data is saved in a CD-200SB settings file named, "cd-200sb.
dat" that is created in the root of each SD card and USB flash
drive used with this unit.
Do not alter this settings file, because doing so could result in
not being able to use the direct folder function correctly and
other problems.
