Read File from STG RAM

After this function is called, a menu appears in which you can select a file with
the cursor keys. All file names in the RAM of the hand-held terminal with the
file extension .HEX are displayed. If the STG RAM does not contain any files
with the extension .HEX, the message "No file available" appears.

Write File to MDS (Write File to Tag)

The file name is entered as described in chapter 5.4.1. After a file name con-
tained in the directory is entered, you are given the following choices.
If you selected the "Append" data option, the file is automatically read again af-
ter execution of the write function. This gives you the complete updated file on
the editor.
If you selected the file name "Other File" when you called the write function and
entered a new file name with the keyboard, the "Create" screen appears.
E-42
You can overwrite the file or append the new
data to the existing file.
In the next screen, you can still change the
length of the data to be written.
The default length is always given as the
value of the length of the data in the editor. If
you change the default length, the data
length on the MDS will also be adjusted.
If you confirm this screen with "Yes," a new
file is created on the MDS before the data are
written to the MDS.
