window (see figure 44), accessible via the

Tools

menu, provides a way to view the contents

of the file system of the switcher and upload custom HTML pages to the switcher.

NOTES: • The files listed in figure 44 are shown for example only and may not be

present on your switcher.

The HTML Files List window is for inserting your own HTML pages. This

is not the window to replace the firmware that controls all switcher
operation (see “

Updating firmware

,” to replace the firmware).

The following characters are invalid or not recommended in file names:

{space} + ~ , @ = ‘ [ ] { } < > ’ “ “ ; : | \ and ?.

the switcher.
