U- Utilities Menu

R- Other Reference Data Menu

P- Data Purge Menu

Note: To avoid lost clusters, a system backup should be done before claims are purged. This file does not need to be purged after every transmission. Claims may be accumulated, as long as, there is available disk space. Because FastEMC does not release this space back to the root directory, the check disk function will not reflect free space as a result of the purge.
