11.4 Managing the Pre-planned Tracks

Creating a New Catalog

A catalog is created if, in step 4 during the entering of the management data (see page 86) in the process

of generating a track, a new catalog-name is entered in the field under Select Catalog instead of the

marking of a catalog. When the EDIT TRACK menu is closed by means of the CLOSE button, a message

appears, stating that the new track cannot be stored because the catalog entered does not exist, and a

question appears, asking whether the catalog is to be created. If this question is answered with Yes, the

catalog is created.

Deletion of Tracks and Catalogs

1. In the TRACK menu, open the Delete Track(s) list by

means of the DELETE button. Initially, all catalogs that

have been created are listed there.

2. Mark the desired catalog by clicking, and click on the

DELETE button. As a result, the list of tracks that are

contained in the catalog appears.

3. By clicking, mark the track that is to be deleted, and

click on the DELETE button. As a result, the marked

track is irretrievably deleted.

4. Repeat step 3 for any other tracks that are to be

deleted. If there are no more tracks present in the

catalog that has been opened and if the DELETE

button is then clicked, the catalog is deleted.

Giving a Different Number to a Track or Assigning a Track to a Different Catalog

In the first step, the track is copied and is stored under the new number or in a different catalog. The

steps needed for this are identical to steps 1 to 5 described in Section 11.3.

In the second step, the track under the old number or in the previous catalog is deleted - see above.
