Does anybody know where I can find a manual or a guide to System Manager. I have to macros and snapshots between one switcher and another and would like to use system manager instead of a usb stick as I don't have one with me today.

I had a look at ftp.sony.com but they don't have anything for System Manager.

Thanks

Just in case anybody else is looking I found a manual @ It seems to have a terrible layout. Macros for instance seemed to be stored in one file so you can't just copy one macro from one switcher to another. Frame Memories on the other hand are a breeze. Its typical Sony to call System Manager BZPS-8000 on its manually. How exactly do they think anybody will find it in an easy manner. All I want is a simple application that I can run on a PC that lets me log onto the switchers at our facility and easily copy single or multiple macros/snapshots/effects etc from the switcher to the PC and then back. Sure System Manager lets you backup the entire panel and frame but that's not a function I do very often. Having a show move from Studio 2 to Studio 1 one week because another show needs to use a particular studio means I have to copy particular macros etc to the other switcher however I don't want to copy everything just what I need. I don't get why I can re-name effects on the desk and those names appear on the flexi-pads and menus however in System Manager you do see those names. From what I have seen it seems like its only made for backing up. Am I just using it wrong or is that a fair assessment.
