3) Select one of the P–CODE files listed below using the cursor,
then press the input key.
File name Description
PCD 256A For systems without a sub–CPU (256K bytes)
PCD 512A For systems without a sub–CPU (512K bytes)
PCD 256M For systems with a sub–CPU (256K bytes)
PCD 512M For systems with a sub–CPU (512K bytes)
Note
System files, such as the CNC program or the micro
compiler, cannot be saved (if you attempt to save one of
these files, the message ”PROTECT FILE” is displayed).
4) The message “INPUT FILE NAME” appears. Input the file name
using the MDI key. A file must be named according to MS–DOS
file naming rules; that is, a file name consisting of up to eight
characters followed by a three–character or shorter extension.
During file name input:
The cursor can be moved using the cursor ( and ) keys.
The cancel key functions as the backspace key.
Pressing the reset key displays the DATA SAVE
DIRECTORY screen [Fig. 2.3.1 (f)] again.
Characters are input in the overwrite mode.

(3) Specifications and limitations of the memory card
(a) Specifications
The boot system of Series 15–B permits the use of commercially
available memory cards conforming to the following
specifications:
Standards : JEIDA Ver.4 or later
Capacity : 512K bytes or more
(b) P–CODE file size
When a P–CODE file is saved onto a memory card, its size is as
follows:
File capacity Size on memory card
256K#bytes 262272#bytes (256K#bytes + 128#bytes)
512K#bytes 524416#bytes (256K#bytes + 128#bytes)
Note
A P–CODE file cannot be divided and saved onto two or
more memory cards. Prepare a memory card having
enough capacity to save the whole file. Two or more
P–CODE files can be saved onto the same card.
