5.2 Unites file
“dmt file” can be brought together by selecting “File” ⇒“Unites file” of menu bar.
The same operation can be done even by the “Pre.” and “Next” of tool bar.
(Refer item 3.1 for the tool bar.)
(Refer item 10.17/10.16 of Paperless Recorder Manual
(WXPVM70mnA0001E or WXPVM70MNB0001E/WXPVM70MNB1001E) for "dm, dmt file".)
①Unites Previous data
Previous “dmt file” is united from one file that is opening now, and displays it as a file of one.
②Unites Next data
Next “dmt file” is united from one file that is opening now, and displays it as a file of one.
※Only when “dmt file” is one, files cannot be united. To make two or more “dmt file”. In order
to create plural "dmt files", a "File record cycle" is set up. Then, it is necessary to record more
than a "File record cycle."
(Refer item 7.19 of Paperless Recorder Manual for "File record cycle")
※"dm file" can not unite. (If [Unites file] of a "dm file" is performed, a display will be switched
to the next "dm file" (or previous "dm file").)
Moreover, each "dmt file" managed by plural "dm files" can not unite.
(By one "dm file", a "dmt file" manages to 50 file. If 50 or more "dmt files" are created, "dm
file" is created newly. A "dmt file" can unite only between "50 dmt files" managed by "dm file".)
In order to increase time recordable between one "dm file", it is necessary to set up a "File
record cycle."
●Relationship between a "File record cycle" and "dm file"
Case: File recording cycle "1 hour"
Whenever an hour passes, one dmt file is created. And when 50 dmt files are created (When
50 hours pass), one dm file is created.
Case: File recording cycle "1 week"
Whenever 1 week passes, one dmt file is created. And when 50 dmt files are created (When
50 weeks pass), one dm file is created.
