The Controller Link Support Software allows you to display a list of files in a di-
rectory and select one of the files. This will save you the trouble of entering file
names and also prevent entry mistakes.
Displaying a File List

to select a file from the file list. File lists can be displayed in any window where the
F8 Key has “Files” displayed for it.
