There are many folders here that gives access to many of the elements that the grandMA2 software uses.
Show folder
The folder called "shows" contain all the show files save in this version of the software. If show files from a previous
software is needed, then you will need to navigate to the correct version folder and find the show folder in that
version.
Template show folder
The Template show folder is found in the first layer of folders. Show files can be copied to this folder. Show files in
this folder are read only, and cannot be overwritten. They can be loaded from the grandMA2 software and stored as
a new show either internal or on a USB stick.
Then only way to get show files into the template folder is using FTP access.
The template folder is not overwritten when the device is updated. It is only overwritten when a Full Install is
performed.
Import Export
If something is exported using the Export keyword, then it most often ends up in the "importexport" folder.
Depending on what it is it might end up in the "macro" folder or the "fixture_layers" folder.
The internal fixture library are found in the "library" folder.
Crashlogs
It can happen that a device crashes. If this should happen then a crashlog is written and stored in the "temp" folder.
On the consoles it is also possible to get these crash logs using the
keyword. This is not possible on
the NPUs.
Screenshots
It is possible to make a screenshot of the last touched screen by pressing the
Prt Scr
key on the keyboard. The
screenshots are stored in the "temp" folder. It is a gz compressed tga file. It needs to be uncompressed before it can
be opened.
