The structure of the directories used when calling in the MCS100E program is
derived from the configuration file MCSCONF, menu: Directories and Files
(
→ p. 123, §9.1.3.4). If you wish another directory structure to be activated upon
program start, then you must enter this there.
When switching over from summer to winter time (time set back by 1 h), the
(saving) times of the data files may become overlapping.
 To avoid that duplicate entries affect the evaluation of stored files, stop
data recording (Specialist: System edit: Data storage and send to PC) and
erase those files that were created in the preceding hour.
