2.6.2 Upper compatibility of the drawing file
Compatibility between DOS version and Window version
A drawing file created using the FX-PCS-DU/AT-EE (DOS version) can be read using the DU/WIN software.
However, have in mind that the screen data which is newly created or edited using the DU/WIN software and
saved in a file (DUP format) cannot be read using the software of the DOS version.
To edit a file using the software of the DOS version, the screen data should be saved in the GDT format.
Though files have been created using the software of the DOS version for external characters and printers
title (document footers in the DU/WIN software), such files cannot be handled by the DU/WIN software.
However, the external character data and the printer title data can be read because they are included in the
screen data.

The F940GOT Series display unit added by version upgrade (to V2.0) of the DU/WIN software cannot be read
by a version former than V2.0. DU files which have been handled by V1.0 can be read.
Compatibility when the Windows version and the DOS version are used together
When using upgraded objects and added objects of the DU and the F940GOT, make sure to use the
compatible software of the DOS version and the Windows version.
If a file is read by the software of incompatible version, errors will occur in the drawing data saved in the file.
For compatible versions, refer to "9.2 Additional functions and corresponding version of the DU".
