214 PM5D/PM5D-RH V2 / DSP5D Owner’s Manual Reference section
If a higher directory is selected, this column will show a
“. .” symbol. You can click this symbol to return to that
directory.
• TYPE
This indicates the type of data that is saved. In the case
of a directory, this column will indicate [DIR]. Data
that cannot be used by the PM5D is indicated as
UNKNOWN.
DATE / SIZE
This shows the date on which the file was last saved,
and its size. In the case of a directory, only the date of
creation is displayed.
• COMMENT
This displays comments (up to 32 characters) stored
for the files on the memory card. To create or edit a
comment, click the COMMENT field of the file
selected in the list to open the FILE COMMENT EDIT
window.

NNumber of files / Free area

This displays the number of files and directories in the
current directory, and the free area on the memory
card.
Note
A maximum of 99 files and directories can be displayed in the
file list. If there are more than 99, a blinking message of “Too
Many Files” will be displayed. In this case, please delete
unneeded files or move files to another directory.

OSAVE

This saves the data selected in the left side of the screen
to the currently selected directory. When you click this
button, the FILE NAME EDIT window will appear,
allowing you to assign a filename of up to eight charac-
ters and save the file.
Note
If an identically-named file exists in that directory, a mes-
sage will warn you that you will be overwriting the file. If you
don’t want to overwrite the existing file, you can either
change the filename or select a different directory in which to
save the file.
When you execute the Save operation in CSV EXPORT
mode, a new directory will be created within the current
directory of the memory card, and a CSV file for each
selected item will be created in the new directory.
The name of the CSV file is fixed for each type of data, and
cannot be changed. The newly created directory will have
the name you specified when saving.

PRENAME

This button lets you rename the currently selected file
or directory. When you click this button, the FILE
NAME EDIT window will appear, allowing you to edit
the name.

QMAKE DIR (Make directory)

This button creates a new sub-directory within the cur-
rently selected directory. When you click this button,
the DIR NAME EDIT popup window will appear,
allowing you to specify a name for the new directory.

RDELETE

This button deletes the currently selected file or direc-
tory. When you click this button, the FILE DELETE
window will appear, asking you to confirm the
deletion.
Note
•A deleted file cannot be recovered.
If you attempt to delete a directory that contains files, a
warning message will appear, and the operation cannot be
executed. Before deleting a directory, you must first delete
any files it contains.
Note
As memory cards, the PM5D can use either PCMCIA
Type II flash ATA cards or CompactFlash media inserted in
a PC card adaptor (power supply voltage of 3.3V/5V in
either case). Operation is not guaranteed for any other type
of media.
Normally, the above cards are sold in an already-formatted
state, so formatting will not be necessary. If you need to for-
mat a card, use a computer or other external device to
format the card in FAT16 format.
