Note
• Do not save files directly to the root directory. Create a folder, and save files to that folder. If there are
many folders in the root directory, it will take some time to save files to a folder that is at a lower level in
the folder hierarchy.
• You can create or save up to 256 files and folders in the root directory.

You can set the file-name format to one of the following options. For all formats, the maximum
number of characters is 36.

You can select up to three items to be used for file names. The selected items are used as parts
of the file name in the following order:

Four characters
The range is 0 to 9999. Four characters are assigned for the file name. For example, if

If you select to use the ID number for the file name, when Tape Number Type is set to
anything other than Off, the tape number is automatically appended to the ID number.
Example: If you have a combination of ID No. “0” and Tape Number Type “a to c (3),” the
file names will be set as follows: 0000a → 0000b → 0000c → 0001a → 0001b
