You can enter a logical name instead of a fixed file name. Logical names make
the work easier for you, especially when you transfer file names to PLC
modules.
Syntax: >Group.name
Examples:
>NCPATH.NCEDIT:
The TNC transfers the complete name and path of the file that is currently
selected in the editing mode.
>OEM.PLCMAIN:
The TNC transfers the complete name and path of the PLC program that was
entered in the OEM.SYS file with the command PLCMAIN.
