• If both text files “MSGxxyyy.BIN” conventionally used and “MSGxxyyy.TXT” available from this
version exist in the same “MSG” folder on a CF card, only “MSGxxyyy.TXT” will be recognized.

required filenames correctly or convert the “MSGxxyyy.BIN” files, which are
automatically created when screen data is written to a CF card, into TXT files.
For the procedure of converting BIN files into TXT files, refer to “18 CF Card” in the V8
