formats.
a) Recommendation for "PN".
It is recommended that "PN" (Point Name) data should consist of less or equal to 4
(one-byte) numeric characters to convert files with DL-01. Because, it may not be
converted properly if alphabetic characters or more than 5 (one-byte) numeric
characters are used for the "PN".

according to the settings on R-400V.
