Sorry in advance for this simple question, but I've never written a file manually. I want to set up a custom file with a short cut (like C4 for example) to do a bit change. I want it to go MY12 , MX-2 , MZ0. I know this seems very simple, but I can't figure out how to save it as a custom cut file. Ryan showed me at the Ohio camp last week and it took him about 30 second, but I can't remember where to start. Can someone please help this pitiful man with short term memory loss! Also, is there a place in the manual that walks you through this?
Thanks, Terry

Open editor
type your text one command per line
save as Custom4.SBC
you may have to select "all files" from the drop down file type list to allow savaing as SBC (not SBP)

Save it in the C:\SbParts\Custom directory. Check out the other files in that directory to see how they are done. The first line should be a comment - beginning with a ['] (apostraophe). The text after the apostrophe will appear in the drop down menu when you type [C] in the SB control software. (It may not appear until you close and re-start the SB software)
