Saving data to an AN200 File
Once you’ve edited an AN pattern and pattern to your satisfaction you can save it to an
AN200 File. Each AN200 File can contain up to 128 patterns, and these can be called
up at any time with the Open function. (Also see Calling Up Data from an AN200 File.)
Additional AN200 files (each with 128 User patterns) can be saved to floppy disks or
your hard disk drive --- giving you unlimited storage for your original patterns. For orga-
nizing the patterns in the AN200 Files, use the convenient AN200 Librarian function.

Select “Save AN200 File.”
Click "File" on the menu bar, then select "Save AN200 File".
• "Save AN200 File" can also be selected from the toolbar.
x
Select the desired folder, type in the file name, and click “Save.”
Once you’ve saved a set of User patterns and to one or more AN200 Files (see Saving
Patterns), you can instantly call up the desired patterns with this command.
To create a new AN200 File, use the New command.
z
Select “Open AN200 File.”
Click "File" on the menu bar, then select "Open AN200 File." Open AN200 File is
also available on the toolbar.
x
Select the desired folder and file name, then click “Open.”
• Keep in mind that this operation loads the User pattern data only into the User pattern mem-
ory of the AN200 Editor. After opening a file, if you want to play these Patterns on the AN200
separate from the AN200 Editor, you should transmit the User pattern data. (Refer to Trans-
mit AN Bulk Dump Data.) There is no need to transmit AN200 Bulk Dump Data if you select a
pattern in the Pattern List of the AN200 Editor, since the current pattern bulk data is sent with
that operation.
