The Commands Menu

5.5.1

New File (Create File)

"Create File" is used to set up a new file on the MDS. The file name may not
yet exist on the MDS. The new file is always given a length of 0.
5.5.2

Delete File

This function deletes a file from the MDS memory.
If you are in the directory view, it is very easy to start the delete function by
pressing the "Del" key. You can use the "Del" key to delete files from the MDS
or the hand-held terminal. The files are deleted from the hand-held terminal if
the STG files are being shown in the directory view.
5.5.3

Format MDS (Tag Format)

Before it can be used with the filehandler, the MDS must be formatted. Before
formatting, it is important to set the memory size of the MDS correctly. Use the
Extras/Parameter function for this. Formatting deletes all data from the MDS,
and a new file structure is set up.
