C The colour of the drive set icon depends on the usage of the drive set:
– Drive set is free.
– Drive set is used.
– Drive set is incomplete or invalid usage.
X Tip!
The operation of the Card File Handler is context-sensitive, i.e. you can only
execute functions that are possible for the element selected from the archive tree.
In the archive tree you can use a context menu with the most frequently used menu
commands. The context menu is activated by a click on the right mouse key.
If a plus sign appears in front of an element in the archive tree this element has
sub-elements.
• A click on the plus sign opens the list of sub-elements.
• A minus sign appears instead of the plus sign. Clicking the minus closes the
list of sub-elements.
