FlashAir files DATALOG copy in 8x3 format - DrNefario - 05-03-2021

I have been successfully using a W-03 FlashAir card for 4 years.  Now, I am trying to configure a 'new' FlashAir card  which is an old SD-6 (gen 1 ) version for a second AirSense-10.  It is in Station mode and I can either use FlashPAP or a browser to copy the files to my PC.  However, all the DATALOG files filenames are shortened to 8x3 format and sleepyhead only displays "Summary Data" without graphs.  Is there a fix for this?

I'm guessing that it could how the card is formatted. What is the format, FAT or FAT32?

I thought that might have something to do with it, but I checked and it is FAT32. Note that the files on the card are the long name format. If I download the files to my PC directly from the card, everything works OK. The problem is when I use wireless to download the files. t only have the original card firmware as I have been unable to locate any update for that. I have W-02 and W-03 update versions but nothing prior. Also, I'm not sure how to determine the FW version on the card.
PS - Update: When I run the FlashAir.exe that came on the card, it says V1.14
(I normally configure it by editing the CONFIG file)

I found a review of the original series of FlashAir cards, that was dated 2013. It states that the firmware only supports the 8.3 format.

Okay, thanks for that clarification.  It's not good news, but good to know. Sad
