Managing Files
Files such as host software and configuration files that are necessary for the operation of the device are
saved in the storage media of the device. You can manage files on your device through these operations:
Directory Operations , File Operations , Batch Operations , Storage Medium Operations , and Setting
Prompt Modes .
Naming Rules for a Storage Medium
Naming rules for a storage medium are as follows:
• If there is only one storage medium of the same type on the device, the physical device name of the
storage medium is the name of the storage medium type, for example, cf.
• If there are multiple storage media with the same type on the device, the physical device name of
a storage medium is composed of the storage medium type and the sequence number of the
storage medium. The sequence number is displayed in English letters such as a, b or c. For example,
for a device with multiple CF cards, the physical device name of the first CF card is cfa, and that of
the second is cfb, and so on.
• If a storage medium is partitioned, the name of a partition is composed of the physical device name
and the partition number. The sequence numbers of partitions are displayed in numbers such as 0,
1 and 2. For a device with only one CF card for example, the name of the second partition of the
CF card is cf1; for a device with multiple CF cards, the name of the third partition of the second CF
card is cfb2. If there is only one partition on a CF card, the partition name is the physical device
name followed by 0.
