Load Function Dialog

After you have selected one or more Þles in this way, you will still choose a bank and mode to be
used for the load process, just as with loading a single Þle. However, the dialog prompt will say
Load selected as:
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

|||Load|selected|as:

If you selected any macro Þles (
.MAC
extension) from the directory, then once you have select
the mode for loading, you will see the question:
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Load|macros|as|specified?|||||||||||||||
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
|Yes||
|
|No||
The answer to this question instructs the K2600 that any macro Þles will have their macro entries
loaded according to the bank and mode:
Yes
speciÞed in the macro entry.
No
currently speciÞed for this multiple Þle load. In other words, whatever you select for
Bank and Mode will override the instructions for each entry in the macro.
At this point the Þles will begin to load. When all the Þles have been successfully loaded or the
load process has been aborted, the K2600 returns to the Disk-mode page.
If there are any errors encountered during a multiple Þle load, such as running out of object
RAM, you will be asked once if you wish to abort the load. In some cases, you may wish to
continue loading. If you continue (and donÕt abort), the only way to abort will be to use a special
procedure described in the next paragraph.
Aborting a Multiple File Load
There is a way to abort the process of loading multiple Þles. Aborting can only be done
Òin betweenÓ Þles that are being loaded, and not during the load of any one Þle (short of
powering off or soft-resetting the machine by pressing
+/-
,
0
, and
Clear
simultaneously, but this
is not recommended!).
Aborting a multiple Þle load is done by pressing and holding down either of the Plus (
+
) or the
Minus (
-
) buttons that are located just below the Alpha wheel. This should be done at least one-
half second before you anticipate the current Þle to Þnish loading, or else the K2600 will not
sense that you wish to abort the load.
