Data File Manager

Welcome to Data File Manager!
Thank you for using the "Data File Manager".
Data File Manager is maintenance software for PLC and operator interface. The software
provides data maintenance of the operating device through communication. To use Data FileManager, connect the PC and PLC or operator interface via USB or Ethernet. Then, connect
from the Data File Manager to start the communication.
Highlights of the Data File Manager are as follows.

Intuitive operability
Buttons on the tool menu, drag & drop, and context menu with a right click are supported touse each function.

Tree view for data in the external memory device
Files and folders in the SD memory card or USB flash drive are shown in a tree structure andtarget files can easily be found.

Operations for files and folders
Files and folders can be added, renamed, or deleted.

PLC maintenanceViewing the PLC status, such as Run/Stop state or error status, downloading/uploading user
programs, and upgrading the system software of the PLC are supported.

Operator interface maintenanceViewing the operator interface's target information, such as system software version orexternal memory device information, and downloading/uploading the project are supported.

Notes - Data File Manager
There are the following notes when you use Data File Manager:

Downloading or uploading the user program (PLC)
The user program for Data File Manager can be created using WindLDR. For downloading theuser program to the PLC, you must specify the ZLD file created by WindLDR. As for uploading
the user program from the PLC, the uploaded file, ZLD file, is saved on the PC. The uploaded
ZLD file can be opened and edited using WindLDR.

Downloading or uploading the project file (operator interface)
The project file for Data File Manager can be created using WindO/I-NV4. For downloading theproject file to the operator interface, you must specify the ZNV or ZNX file created by
WindO/I-NV4. As for uploading the project file from the operator interface, the uploaded file,
the ZNV file, is saved on the PC. The uploaded ZNV file can be opened and edited using
WindO/I-NV4.

Data File Manager Ver.4.1.0<Application Software>
The following functions have been introduced.

 PLC system software is updated.
 Data File Manager now supports the FT1J and HG1J models.
 The IP address search function has been improved. Details are as follows.
The following models other than HG2J and FT2J also support the IP address searchfunction.
▪ FT1J model, HG1J model▪ HG5G/4G/3G/2G-V models▪ HG4G/3G models▪ HG2G-5F/-5T models▪ HG1G/1P models- As all HMI models support the IP address search function, the "Target Device" in theConnection Settings dialog has been unified from "HMI (HG5G/4G/3G/2G-V, HG4G/3G,
HG2G-5F/-5T, HG1P/1G" and "HMI (FT2J-7U, HG2J-7U)" to "HMI" to enable seamless
operation.
 The command line parameter "\cf_download" now supports the following options fordownloading certificates, etc. to a USB memory inserted in the FT1J/2J or HG1J/2J.
- "-PF" (mqtt_basic_settings.ini file)- "-MRC" (root certificate of server certificate)- "-MCC" (Client Certificate)- "-MCP" (Client Private Key) The maximum data limit for downloading and uploading device addresses (LDR and LKR)
has been increased.
 Since port 2541 is used during maintenance communication with HMI models, it has been
made impossible to specify 2541 as the "Port Number" in "After downloading, change thesettings of Target " in the "Target IP Address Settings" dialog.
 Improved the GUI for searching IP addresses and setting network settings for PLCs (FC6A
type CPU module Plus16 point type, Plus32 point type).
- You can now select all search results with network configurable options by pressing Ctrl
+ A.
- The progress and results of IP address search and network configuration are now
displayed in the bottom left corner of the dialog.
