Viewing, Editing and Archiving Playlists

Playlists can be accessed via the server’s FTP feature, allowing several capabilities:

• Lists can be backed up on a PC, and sent to another server.
• Lists can be viewed and printed from the PC
• Lists can be edited or created on the PC and uploaded to the server.

Playlists are found on the MAXX-2400 FTP directory in the lists folder. They are simple text files
