options exist for reloading the actual file:
1. Prompt before reloading file
2. Reload
automatically
3. Ignore change scanning of current file
There are three situations when file modification is tested:
• switching to the control program from another
application
• selecting the device operation Verify or Program
• when repeat of last device operation is selected in
dialog "Repeat?"
Load file format allows setting the file format recognition
mode. When automatic file format is selected, program
determines the format automatically. If file format matches one
of supported formats, the file is read to buffer in the detected
format.
Manual file format allows the user to select explicitly the file
format. The file may be loaded incorrectly, if the file format
does not match the user selected format.
