    25.9.3.2 File Manager - Extended

    • The name of the file created in a CF card/USB storage on the PC is displayed with capital letters on a display unit even if the name uses lower case characters. However, if the files are saved to a CF Card/USB storage from the FTP server, upper-case and lower-case letters will be distinguished on the display unit. This also applies to folder names.

    • Up to 19 characters in file names can be displayed. If a name uses more than 19 characters, the first 16 characters will be displayed and the rest will be shown as "...".

    • Up to 14 characters in folder names can be displayed. If a name uses more than 14 characters, the first 11 characters will be displayed and the rest will be shown as "...".

  3. Information
    When you select a folder, the folder creation date displays. Selecting a file displays the creation date and size of the file.

  1. Selecting the folder and touching the [DISP] key displays a list of all the files in the folder.

    • To navigate to a higher hierarchical folder, select the [ ..<DIR>] row then touch the [DISP] key.

  2. Select a file, and then touch the [DISP] key to view the file in the [Show CSV] dialog box.

    • In the [File Manager], if you select files that are not CSV files and then touch the [DISP] key, those files do not appear in the [Show CSV] part.

    • If the CF Card is removed or the cover of the CF Card slot is opened while the CSV file displays, the [Show CSV] dialog box is cleared.

    • Switching screens clears the [Show CSV] display.

    You can display all CSV data (Alarm History Data and Sampling Data) created with the display unit in the Special Data Display [Show CSV]. The [Show CSV] display works with exclusive scroll switches (Scroll Up, Down, Left, Right).

    • You can enter a maximum of 100 characters in each cell.

    • Each cell displays as text. The display is fixed as left-aligned.

    • Character Code in the CSV File is Native only (press Shift JIS for Japanese). Western European languages will be displayed using Code Page 1252.)

    • The outer borders are 2-dot lines, and the inner borders are 1-dot lines. Two-dot spaces are left between the borders that separate the cells and the data in the cells.

    • The height of the cell is adjusted depending on the font size.
      The width of each cell adjusts depending on the text width. When the number of characters is five or less, the width is set to five characters.
