File extensions, names and contents
Various types of fi les can be uploaded and downloaded and are
distinguished by their extension.
File names
In order to be recognised, the names of the directories and fi les on the
pendrive must have no more than 8 characters; the controller makes no
distinction between upper-case and lower-case characters. However,
during DOWNLOAD the names of the directories created by the controller
on the pendrive are always in upper-case.
FILE TYPES FOR UPLOAD

contained no directory of this type before download, it is indicated with

downloaded to the pendrive, as the directories created can only be
numbered with XY=00 to 99.
