5.2 Directories use:
Some names are reserved for the system and must not be used. You
can manually create these directories or use small utility software
you'll find on our site, www.id-al.com, to automatically create all the
default directories. (Description at the end of this manual).
SONG: default directory containing all your tracks. Its name must be
written with uppercase (capital) letters.
Tip: This directory will serve as a "tank". You can use only this
directory and place all your music inside.
IN: The "IN" directory gathers all the intervention files together. It will
contain files used by the timer message, files launched from the
optional inputs/outputs module, infrared commands and various
external commands.
Note : You will place in the "IN" directory all files called by the
programs. Name are "Txxx.mp3"
xxx = number from 001 and 255. (see programming software chapter)
F001 to F255: Directories called by the programs to customize music during a day. (see programming
software chapter)
Warning: all imposed names must be written with upper case (capital) letters.
It is recommended to delete any unused or empty directory.
For the other directories, you may use any desired name.
We suggest you to very strictly organize your hard disk in order to quickly find your titles. You can create
directories per musical genre, artist name, year, broadcasting date or any other personal organization.
Tip: You may use only one unique directory, "SONG", insert thousand of titles inside, and let the player
pick up one song at a time for random playing.
Sub-directories :
With the V3 firmware, it is now possible to use sub-directories to organize the
music files but they will only be read by the file transfer software in USB
mode. The sub-directories will not be displayed on the LCD of the player and
they will be "transparent" : you will be able to navigate amongst the music files
as if sub-direcotries did not exist.
The use of sub-directories is highly recommanded for directories which include
more than 1000 files in order to reduce the searching delay between tracks.
