    The file manager tab allows the operator to rename files and manage grower, farm, field (GFFClosed Grower, Farm, Field) folders and assignments right on the ROS device. Manual file transfer is also located under this tab. Refer to Using the File Manager for more information on file structure.

    The USB import manager tab allows the operator to find and transfer files from a connected USB flash drive to the ROS device. Refer to USB Import Manager and File Export for assistance using the USB manager.

    If a Slingshot®Field Hub is connected with the ROS device for wireless communication, the File Transfer History tab may be used to track and review transfer history via the Field Hub.

    The File Management Options tab is currently only used if a Slingshot®Field Hub is connected to the ROS device. If a Field Hub is not installed, it is not recommended to leave the Send Jobs to Slingshot® options enabled.
