Disk Partitioning
Disk Mode
3-11
You can use the alphanumeric buttonpad to navigate through the list. Press the index number
you want to view, then press Enter.
Use the Up and Down soft buttons (not the cursor buttons) to navigate through the partition.
Pressing Down when a directory is highlighted takes you into that directory (pressing Down
when a file is highlighted doesn’t do anything). Pressing Up always takes you to the parent
directory of the current directory (if you’re at the partition’s root directory, the K2600 prompts
you to select a partition.). As you’ve probably guessed, pressing Root takes to the root directory
of the current partition.
Press the Go To button to change the current path to the highlighted directory (or to the
directory that contains the highlighted file). You’ll save a lot of time if you use the List utility to
navigate to the desired directory before executing a command (instead of executing the
command first, then navigating to the desired directory in the resulting dialog).
Macros
To support partitions, each macro entry now has a partition ID, which is recorded when you
create the macro. The partition ID is part of the macro entry’s name; it appears after the SCSI ID.
You can view macro entries (if there’s a current macro table) by pressing the Macro soft button
while in Disk mode.
When editing a macro entry (using the Modify option on the MACRO function page in Disk
mode), you can edit the partition ID along with other properties of the entry. If you change the
partition ID of a macro entry, make sure it’s a valid partition ID.
Support for Multiple Removable Disks
This convenient enhancement enables you to use a single macro to load files from different
removable disks.
1. In Disk mode, press Load to begin the Load dialog. You’ll see a prompt asking you to
select a file to load.
2. Select the macro file to load, and press OK. The K2600 displays a prompt asking you to
select a bank for loading the macro.
3. Select a bank (or select specified or Everything), and press OK.
4. The K2600 begins loading files. When it tries to load a file that’s not on the disk, the
display shows you the name of the file that it couldn’t find. Press OK.
5. Another prompt asks you if you want to retry loading after changing disks. Press Yes.
6. Change the removable disk, and press OK, as instructed by the prompt in the display. The
K2600 resumes loading files according to the macro entries.
7. Repeat Steps 4 through 6 as often as necessary to load all the files specified by the macro.
The display returns to the Disk-mode page when loading is complete.
