NT Transfer Utility
With the Support Tool on CD-ROM, the NT Transfer Utility, which can transmit
screen data to a PT easily on site, is supplied.
It can download the screen data file in mmi format to a PT and can save the
screen data uploaded from a PT to a file in mmi format.
Screen data file in mmi format is less than 1.44 Mbytes. So it is useful when you

uploading the screen data without modifying the contents.
NT Transfer Utility can handle only the file in mmi format. It is not possible to
read or write the file in onw format, which is a standard format of the Support
