Inserting Data From Files
You can import pattern data from a file on the floppy drive, hard disk, or the

1. Move the cursor to the position to which you want to move the data.
2. Push File (bottom)!Insert from File... (pop–up)! ENTER (front).

or markers with Target, which is displayed in the Set Pattern dialog box, regardless
of the scope selection.
