DTX-PRO Reference Manual
A knowledge of terms is required to understand the functions and operations of the Menu/File section. This section explains the terminology
used in the MENU/File section.
File
The term “file” is used to define a set of data saved on a USB flash drive. Data exchanged between the DTX-PRO and a USB flash drive is
carried out in the form of files.
File name
The name given to the file is called a file name. Files names are important for distinguishing files, and the same file name cannot be used
in the same directory. While computers can handle long names, and even include non-English characters, the DTX-PRO can only use
alphanumeric characters.
Extensions
The “period + three letters,” such as “.wav” at the end of the file name, is referred to as a “file extension.” The extension indicates the type
of file. Files that the DTX-PRO uses have a “.bin” extension, which is not displayed on the DTX-PRO screen.
File size
This refers to the size of the file. The file size is determined by the amount of data saved in the file. File size is measured in units indicated
with a B (byte). Large files and also the memory capacity of devices are represented using units of KB (kilobytes), MB (megabytes), and
GB (gigabytes). 1KB=1024B, 1MB=1024KB, and 1GB=1024MB.
Format
Initializing the USB flash drive is known as “formatting.” Formatting a USB flash drive using the DTX-PRO will erase all files and direc-
tories (folders).
