Material Management Window - Text Tab 
 
The Material Management window is used to manage the four types of materials, and 
the playlists. 
The Text tab lists registered text materials. 
PC File Management and NSP-100 Remote File Management Option Buttons, 
NSP-100 Drop-down List Box and Update Button 
Select either of the two option buttons, depending on the place where the desired text 
materials are stored. 
Normally, the PC File Management option button is selected.  Select the NSP-100 
Remote File Management option button, however, to check or delete materials stored on 
a network player.  In such a case, select the desired network player from the NSP-100 
drop-down list box.  The Update button is used to update the list of materials stored on 
the selected network player. 
List 
Displays the text material stored in the selected location.  Lines whose length (Len.) are 
not shown represent bitmap texts, that show bitmaps instead of text sentences.  The 
Duration column indicates the estimated time to display the piece of text material (two 
seconds in the case of constant or blinking text). 
You can sort (ascending order) the material by clicking the title of the desired column.  
New pieces of material are listed at the bottom. 
To modify the type and/or title of a piece of material, double click the desired column, 
modify the text, then press the Enter key.  To edit or delete the material, specify or clear 
the date of deletion, right-click the desired material and select the desired command 
from the menu. 
Hint 
If an event type or title is longer than the width of the list, and thus it is not fully 
displayed, move the mouse pointer over the code, type, or title.  The entire text pops up. 
New Button 
Opens the Edit Text dialog box to create a new piece of character text material. 
Read Bitmap Button 
Opens the Open dialog box to create a new piece of bitmap text material. 
Hint 
The bitmap files that satisfy the following conditions will be converted to material 
having the same material codes as those of the original files.  A piece of material that 
already has that material code will be overwritten. 
• 
The file name (extension excluded) consists of eight characters, and the extension is 
"bmp." 
• 
The first character of the file name is T. 
• 
The third through the eighth characters (six digits) of the file name are numbers. 
Destination Drop-down List Box, Send and Abort Buttons 
These are used to specify the destination network player group and send the selected 
material(s).  The Abort button cancels material transfer.  These controls appear only 
when the PC File Management option button is selected.
