• Files configurable with this command are the graphic files (VEC format) saved in the laser marker.
• If the object type set in the specified object number is not the graphic (VEC), the laser marker returns the negative
response.
• This command cannot be used for other than VEC format graphic, such as DXF, BMP, JPEG or HPGL etc.
• Refer to "2-3-5 Character data input method" (P.37) for details on the character input method and character types with
input restrictions.
• Graphic file names are not case-sensitive.
• If the graphic file name contains both the one-byte characters and two-byte characters, specify them exactly as they are
in the ASCII code and the Shift JIS code.
• If the file name contains any characters which belong to the non-supported character code, the file cannot be selected
by the command.
