To create a new directory or program that is similar to an existing
program, you can save time by copying the old directory or program
and only changing selected programs or program blocks.
The capability of copying and pasting directories and programs can
also be used to exchange data via the USB-network-drive (e.g. USB
memory stick) with other ShopTurn systems.
You can also rename directories or programs.
It is not possible to rename a program when it is loaded in "Machine
Auto" mode at the same time.
Open the Program Manager.
Place the cursor on the directory/program that you want to copy.
Press the "Copy" softkey.
Select the directory level in which you want to insert your copied
directory/program.
Press the "Insert" softkey.
The copied directory/program is inserted in the selected directory
level. If a directory/program of the same name already exists in the
directory level, a prompt asks whether you want to overwrite or insert
it under a different name.
Press the "OK" softkey if you want to overwrite the
directory/program.
-or-
Enter another name if you want to insert the program/directory
under another name.
-and-
Press the "OK" softkey.
