Limitations on file names in a list file
The following limitations apply when file names are specified in a list
file:
<1> The characters that can be used in file names on the built-in
memory card of the FAST Data Server are the following 66
ASCII characters only:
Numeric characters 0 to 9
Lowercase letters a to z
Uppercase letters A to Z
Four symbols (+, -, _, .)
The characters that can be used in arbitrary file names on the
built-in hard disk of the host computer depend on the OS of the
host computer.
<2> Arbitrary file names may consist of up to 255 characters.
However, the number of characters that can actually be used
depends on the OS of the host computer.
Storage locations of list files
The LIST-GET, LIST-PUT, and LIST-DELETE services are useful
functions for managing NC programs in groups.
The places where list files are prepared vary depending on the service
to be executed.
For the LIST-GET service, NC programs to be operated on are present
on the built-in hard disk of the host computer, so list files are placed
also on the built-in hard disk of the host computer.
For the LIST-PUT and LIST-DELETE services, NC programs to be
operated on are present on the built-in memory card of the FAST Data
Server, so list files are also prepared on the built-in memory card of
the FAST Data Server.
