Folder and File Formats
Most of the MMEMory commands refer to the folders and files. These have specific structures, described below:
Format for a <folder>
–
The format for <folder> is "[[<drive>:]<path>]<file_spec>", where <drive> can be INTernal or USB, <path> is a
folder path, and <filespec> specifies a subset of files.
– INTernal specifies the internal flash file system. USB specifies a front panel USB storage device.
–
If <drive> is specified, <path> is interpreted as an absolute folder path. Absolute paths begin with "\" or "/" and
start at the root folder of <drive>.
–
If <drive> is omitted, <path> is relative to the folder specified by MMEMory:CDIRectory. Relative paths must NOT
begin with \ or /.
– Folder and file names cannot contain the following characters: \ / : * ? " < > |
–
The <folder> parameter cannot exceed 240 characters.
– The specified folder must exist and cannot be marked as hidden or system. The exception is MMEMory:MDIRect-
ory, which creates a folder. For MMEMory:MDIRectory, all folder levels above the new one must exist.
Format for a <file>
–
The format for a <file> is "[[<drive>:]<path>]<file_name>", where <drive> can be INTernal or USB, and <path>is
a folder path.
– INTernal specifies the internal flash file system. USB specifies a front panel USB storage device.
