Viewing the Source list of formats
You can view the list of formats available in the generator using the front panel or the
command line interface. Use the following procedures to view the Source (format) list.
Note: The Source list of formats that appears on the generator’s display is determined by
the format path. In addition, the list may be filtered based on the interface selected and the
format catalogs that are enabled. For
more information about setting the path,
see “
Setting the generator’s path ” on page 18. For more information about format catalogs,
see “ Format catalogs ” on page 193.
To view the formats in the Source list using the front panel:
Press the Source key. The list of formats appears on the generator’s display as shown
below. To see all of the formats, press the + and - keys to scroll through the list.
To view the formats in the Source list using the command line interface:
1. Establish a session with the generator using either HyperTerminal over a serial
connection or Telnet over an Ethernet LAN. See “ Establishing a terminal session with
the generator ” on page 31 or “ Establishing a Telnet session with the generator ” on page
34.
2. Set the path to the format folder on the medium you want to view using the following
command:
FMTP /tffs0/Library/Formats // sets format path to flashmen directory
3. List the contents of the format folder by entering the following command:
FMTQ? 1 200 // lists the formats from 1 through 200
