4.1.12 Transferring a File from a PC to the PT878
Once you have stored site or meter files to a PC, you can then transfer them
back to the PT878 over an IR sensor (connected to the PC) through the
PT878 IR interface. The PT878 only accepts files with a .sit (site) or .met
(meter) extension. If you rename another type of file with one of these
extensions and transfer it, it will be transferred, but will not function if you
open it. Also, if you are transferring a file and the meter already has a file
with the identical name, the meter will overwrite its current file with the
transferred file. If the transferred file has a name longer than eight
characters, the meter will shorten the name to eight characters, and replace
any spaces in the name with underbars.
