The File Index
On the right end of the top line is the Index Þeld. This tells the position of the highlighted Þle
relative from the beginning of the Þle list. The Þrst entry in a Þle list is index 1.

Typing a number on the K2vx numeric keypad will automatically scroll the display to the
corresponding entry in the Þle list. Typing an out of range value such as 999 is a quick shortcut
to get to the end of the Þle list.
In addition to remembering the current directory on the most recently used drive, the K2vx
now also remembers the index within the Þle list for the current directory. For instance, if you
were to hit cancel on the above screen, and then either choose a different disk function (such as
Rename), or even if you exited Disk Mode, went to Program Mode, and then later returned to
Disk Mode to load a Þle off of the same drive, the Þle index would still show up on 3
(DOORS.KRZ). This index is remembered until a new drive is selected by scrolling the Current
Disk parameter on the Disk Mode page.
There are exceptions to this however. For example, when a Þle is written to the drive using the
Save function, the index will subsequently be set to the Þle that was just saved (see Save
function). The index can also be explicitly set using the List and Find utilities (see below).
If there are no Þles in the current directory, then the index is 0:
Dir:\||||||||||||Sel:0/0|||||Index:|||0|
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
||||File|to|load:|||||||||||||||||||||||
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
|Total:|0K||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Select||Root||Parent||Open|||OK|||Cancel
You will also see that there is a blank cursor bar, but no Þle names are displayed.
The maximum number of Þles that can be accessed within a single directory is 360. If you have
more Þles than this amount in a single directory, then you will not be able to view the entries
past index 360.
While in this dialog, pressing the CHAN/BANK buttons (to the left of the LCD display) will
scroll the Þle list in either the forward or backward direction by "pages" of 5 entries. It is often
easier to scroll the list this way when looking to see if a particular Þle is present in a directory.
Soft Buttons in the File List Dialog
Use the Select soft button for multiple Þle selection in the Load, Delete, and Move functions. In
the display below, there are two Þles selected, as indicated by the asterisk ("*") after the .KRZ
Þle extension. If OK were pressed for the following screen,
