Choosing and Using File Names
The naming conventions for computer files are different from those for
HP 48 variables.
When the HP 48 receives a file from a computer, certain difficulties
may arise due to the computer file name.
■ If the file name contains characters not allowed in a variable name
(such as flB# or CflBO), the HP 48 terminates the transfer and
sends an error message to the computer.
■ If the file name matches a built-in command (such as SIN or DUP),
the HP 48 appends a number extension to the name (such as
S I N . 1).
■ If the name matches a variable name in the current directory and
flag —36 is clear (to protect existing variables), a number extension
is added to the name (such as NfiME. 1).
When the HP 48 sends a variable to a computer, its name may be
incompatible with the naming conventions of the computer software.
Transferring such a file can result in a transfer error. (You can avoid
this problem by renaming the variable before sending it.)
