1-7 File Selection
When you select

Edit Screen

from the Main Menu, the File Selection Display
is displayed. Move the bar cursor to the desired file name and press the En-
ter Key, or click the desired file name once to move the bar cursor and then
again to open the file.
Each file contains screen data, memory table data (for numeral and charac-
ter string tables), and mark data for a maximum of 250 screens for the
NT20M or 1,000 screens for the NT600M. When you want to create a new
file, select

NEW_FILE

. The Screen Selection Display will then appear to se-
lect from and a file name and title are input when returning to the File Selec-
tion Display. Refer to page 10 for name and title input procedures. If you want
to modify a file that has already been created, select the file that you want to
modify.
The help message area will display the direct connection setting and file size
for the file indicated by the bar cursor.
Caution Check the direct connection setting before reading files. If files created with
the direct connection setting turned OFF are read when the Tool Settings is
set to ON, the screens will be converted to direct connection data. It is not
possible to convert from direct connection data to data without direct connec-
tion.

Caution Data Compatibility with the Old Version of Software (EV1):
The EV4 version of the software can read and edit data created by the EV1.
However, once the data is read by the EV4, it no longer can be read or edited
by the EV1, even if the file name has not been changed. This occurs
because the EV4 expands the data previously saved with the EV1.
Before using any EV1 data with the EV4, it is recommended that a backup
copy of the EV1 be made.
