File types

A file type gives information about the content of the file (type of data records). Each file is identified by its name and its file name extension (e.g.: stamm.amd).
A file can be sent to the MP100D / MP12N-S from the host/PC system by being copied to the outbox.
When the file has been received by the MP100D / MP12N-S or if an error has occurred, an entry is made in the response file in the inbox.
If a file is to be read / deleted from the MP100D / MP12N-S, a request file (ASCII file) must be copied to the outbox with the read/delete command described in the table.
As a result, the requested data and an OK message or an error message are stored in the response file in the inbox. If files have the same name, those that are read out first are overwritten by later ones unless they are removed from the inbox beforehand.
At the same time a log file in the MP100D / MP12N-S is updated.
