File Finder Navigation
Moving from file to file on the recorder is similar to navigating among files on a computer. 1. Enter
the File Viewer by either selecting FILE:VIEW FILES file in the Setup Menu or by pressing the front panel HDD
button. By default the folder with the last recorded or played audio file will be opened. The 702 knows this file
name by reading a text file, named SDINFO.TXT, which is written to each time the unit records or plays.
2. To move up the hierarchy scroll up to the top of the menu to “ \..” .
3. Press enter or push the Rotary Switch to go up one menu level.
4. From the root menu, selecting \.. opens the media select screen.
5. Continuing up the file hierarchy the media menu is viewable. The top-most view in the hierarchy shows
the inserted card’s size and available free space.
Large audio files take longer to show details than smaller files; this is normal.
File Viewer Screen
The File Viewer screen contains information about each individual audio file. The left side of the
display shows files and folders. The top line displays the path in the form of MEDIA\FOLDER NAME.
File names are listed in the order they were recorded.
