7-3-2 Reception of Display History Records
When a screen for which the “History” screen attribute is set is displayed during PT
operation, the PT records this display in the display history record.
This display history record can be read using the support tool in order to analyze
how the screen is used or its frequency of display, for example.
Received files are saved in the DOS text format in the set data directory, and the
extension “.G6L” is automatically assigned to them. The data directory is set in the
“Tool Settings”.
The received data is stored in the order of the order of occurrence record and the
order of frequency record.
Reference: Received display history data can be printed out by selecting [F3] (Print) on the
“File Selection” screen.
Procedure 1. Set the PT to the “Transmit Mode”.
2. Display the “File Selection” screen.
It does not matter where the bar cursor is.
3. Press the [F5] (Hist.) key.
4. Input the file name of the file in which the received display history record is to
be saved.
Specify a file name no longer than eight characters. Do not specify an exten-
sion: the support tool will automatically assign the extension “.G6L” to the file.
5. Press the key to start file reception.

If a file that already exists is specified, a message asking whether or not the file
