Important: If you forget to press the [SPACE] key, the program name is now
1000ULT. Whenever you create a new program name or change
the name; if the previous name consists of more characters than
the new one, the
[SPACE] key must be used to clear the
additional characters. To correct the name, repeat the above
procedure.
Naming Your Main Program File
Unlike the ladder program name, it is not required that you name the main
program file. However, a main program file name is helpful, especially if
there are multiple program files, such as a main program file (always file 2)
and one or more subroutine files (files 3 through 255).
