Folders are numbered from 000 to 999.

Example :

000 : Folder N°000 - «Autoplay» folder which is automatically played when the device is powered on.

001 : Folder N° 1 - Triggerable by the contact input 1
034 : Folder N° 34

The folder number is used identies the folder to use during a jump or an input triggering. You can use
any number between 000 & 999.

IMPORTANT : The trigger contact input select folder to be played
See at the end of chapter 4 the details of the use.

Special case: Folder 000 is the folder which will be played by default when powering on. When powering

on, presence of this folder is checked ; if it is present, the player plays les of this folder.

If this folder is missing, the player is in stop mode.
