S3000 files can be loaded to the MOTIF.
File types that can be loaded from the
Memory Card/SCSI storage device to the
MOTIF when turning the power on (Auto
Load file)
Among the file types described on page 262, “All”,
“Plugin All Bulk 1”, “Plugin All Bulk 2” and
“Plugin All Bulk 3” can be loaded from the Memory
card/SCSI storage device to the MOTIF's User
Memory automatically when turning the power on.
1 Name the files you wish to have load automatically
when the power is turned on as described below,
and save them together in a single folder.
n After you’ve finished naming the appropriate files,
keep the corresponding folder selected in the
display and go to step #2.
2 Press the [UTILITY] button to enter the Utility
mode.
3 Press the [F1] button, then press the [SF4] button
to show the Auto Load file display.
4 Set “Auto Load” to on, and press the [SF5] button.
5 Turn the power off.
6 Before turning the power on next time, make sure
that the appropriate data is available to the
MOTIF. In other words, make sure memory card
specified in step #1 is properly inserted, or that the
SCSI device specified in step #1 is properly
connected.
7 Turn the power on. The MOTIF searches the
device and specified folder for the auto-load files
(the files you named and saved in step #1), and
automatically loads them to User memory.
n Any files in the device and folder registered in step
#4 that do not have appropriate auto-load names
are ignored.
File names
Files are named according to the MS-DOS naming
convention. If the file name contains spaces and other
characters unrecognized in MS-DOS, these characters
will automatically be replaced by “_” (underscore)
characters when saving.
For specific instructions on naming files, see page 267.
