When the symbol/comment is saved in ZM70 format, a "*.mg" file is created by dividing files so each
has 256 symbols/comments at maximum.
[Ex.] When the number of symbols/comments is 1000 and file name is "TEST.SYC."
By saving this file in ZM70 format, four files will be created as "TEST01.MG," "TEST02.MG,"
"TEST03.MG," and "TEST04.MG."
Load the text file (*.MG) having 256 symbols/comments using the software message edit function.
- On the basic screen, message block No. 0 to 11 for displaying normal message and message
block No. 12 to 23 for displaying symbol/comment are provided.
- Open the "*.MG" file using software that can handle text files.
(Ex.: "Notepad" software as an accessory of Windows OS)
- Copy line 0 to 255 and paste to message group No. 12 on the ZM-71SE message edit screen
using the copy and paste function of Windows.
In this case, check that number of messages per one message group is 256 (No. 0 to 255).
- If a carriage return is added at the end of each line, delete these using the back space key.
When the cursor reaches to the last line of the messages, check that the number of lines displayed
at the lowest row of the window display on the status display bar shows 1 to 255. (See the figure
below.)
If this indication shows more than 256, the data exceeds the maximum capacity. Delete lines
exceeding 256 lines.
- By converting the symbol/comment data of the PC, the LCD control terminal recognizes message
data as PC symbol/comment data.
If a normal message is entered using keys, the LCD control terminal does not recognize it as
symbol/comment data.
- After this, move message groups for the number of "*.MG" files one by one.
[Ex.] When the number of symbols/comments is 1000, proceed with TEST01.MG to TEST04.MG as
follows.
Copy "TEST01.MG" text data to message group No. 12 (number of data: 256)
Copy "TEST02.MG" text data to message group No. 13 (number of data: 256)
Copy "TEST03.MG" text data to message group No. 14 (number of data: 256)
Copy "TEST04.MG" text data to message group No. 15 (number of data: 232)
(When setting message group No. 12 and after as symbol/comment area.)
With the above, loading of PC symbols/comments on the message edit screen is complete.
