File Manager
The File Manager tab displays a list of files stored on the MLC. It also allows
those with administrator access to load additional files into the controller, delete
files, and copy files from the controller to the PC.
The File Manager tab
By clicking on the column headings, you can sort the list by file name, by time
and date, or by file size (length). An arrow next to a column heading indicates
the currently selected sort order. Click on the Update button to get the most up-
to-date file list. Click on a filename to select that file.
Only an administrator is able to make changes to the files stored on the
MLC. A person logged in as a user can view the list but not access or change
the files.
File types: a key to file names
You must have a basic understanding of the types of files used by this MLC
controller in order to decide what (if anything) to do with them.
___.eir — These are driver files containing infrared commands. There is a
separate ___.eir file for each device the MLC controls via infrared
communication. This is the type of file created during IR learning. Via the
configuration software, these files can be imported and associated with one
of the controller’s IR/Serial ports.
___.eml — E-mail template files have the .eml extension. These files are used to
generate e-mail messages such as those regarding projector disconnection
and excessive projector lamp hours. The first line of the file is the subject.
The rest of the file contains the body of the e-mail. For the MLC 226 IP, these
files are numerically named (1 through 64). For example, 1.eml, 2.eml,
3.eml,... 64.eml.
___.evt — These are event files, the most important files for the functioning of the
MLC. Almost everything the MLC does is coordinated by the scripts in the
