Drive IDs 3, 4 and 5 can be Internal Hard Disk Partitions or Network Drives. This is determined by
the number of partitions chosen when formatting the internal hard disk. For example, if the internal
disk is formatted with three partitions, these become Drive IDs 1, 2, and 3. There are then three drive
numbers (4, 5, and 6) available to be assigned to Network Drives. If the internal disk is formatted
with only one partition, it is Drive 1, and drives 3, 4, 5, and 6 are available to map Network Drives;
Drive 2 is not available in this case.
M OUNT N ETWORK D RIVE
DigiCart/EX can attach to up to four Network Drives at a time. Refer to Appendix M and specifically
page 102 for more details.
The Mount Network Drive utility is used to establish a link between an available drive number on
DigiCart/EX and one of the available Network Drives on the network. This link is called a ‘drive
map’. The basic process is to select a local drive number to be mapped, and then select a network
drive to which it will be linked. DigiCart/EX will always have at least one drive number that can be
mapped to the network, but depending upon the number of drives assigned to local partitions, up to
four drive numbers may be available for network assignments (see the table above).
U PDATE D IRECTORIES
This feature allows the user to force the creation of or update the summary file for a directory, or
all directories if performed from the drive level. Originally, this feature was included to
facilitate the transfer of material between DigiCarts with different versions of software. In some
cases it may restore a disk that appears to have lost a cut, has a cut that cannot be erased, or
exhibits other problems.
ALERT!
When this feature is used at the Drive level, it will update all 10 cut Directories, and
it will open and close each file on the drive.
If the disk has many cuts, the update procedure can be protracted.
