1.8.3 FILE NAME 
A file name must follow 8.3 format (= short filenames) — at most 8 characters for 
filename, and at most three characters for filename extension. The following characters 
are unacceptable: “ * + , : ; < = > ? | [ ] 
  On 8200 Series, it can only display a filename of 1 ~ 8 characters (the null character 
not included), and filename extension will be displayed if provided. If a file name 
specified is longer than eight characters, it will be truncated to eight characters.   
  Long filenames, at most 255 characters, are allowed when using 8200 equipped with 
SD card as a mass storage device. For example, you may have a filename 
“123456789.txt” created from your computer. However, when the same file is directly 
accessed on 8200, the filename will be truncated to “123456~1.txt”. 
  If a file name is specified other in ASCII characters, in order for 8200 to display it 
correctly, you may need to download a matching font file to 8200 first. 
  The file name is not case-sensitive.
