4.4 Sorting the tag list
The tag list consists of two sections due to it's huge capacity (up to 120,000 tags), a sorted and an
unsorted part. When tags are read the numbers are sequentially stored in the unsorted section of the
tag list.
Should the unsorted list become very large there may be a delay before the string number displayed
after reading the tag. If this should occur then it is advisable to sort the list.
Sorting the tag list is very easy. Each file transfer the unsorted part of the tag list is downloaded to the
PC and stored as a text file. When you upload this file from the PC to the SMT-200 it is automatically
sorted. See the paragraph download tag list and upload tag list for more information.
4.4.1 Download the tag list to the PC
Each file transfer the unsorted part of the tag list is downloaded to the PC. Select in the Docking
Station program the menu item SMT-200, File Transfer for a file transfer. The tag list is stored under
the name 'Tagxxxx.txt'. xxxx represents the serial number of the SMT-200. The file is located in the
subdirectory \SMT200\TAGS.
When a file with your serial number already exists, the unsorted part of the tag list is appended to this
file. By this, you always have a copy of the tag list in the PC.
4.4.2 Upload the tag list to the SMT-200
The menu SMT-200, Tagfile upload gives a new form where you can select a tag file that you want to
upload to the SMT-200.
