An updated version of File 1 of the HC-010B file was

the condition variables (NUMCOND, evICDiX, evPROiX and evCCCiX), which were modified for a
subset of records. At the present time users can obtain the correct set of linked
condition variables for this file by using the updated condition-event link file provided
as File 1 of the Appendix File, HC-010I, with the condition file, HC-006. See the HC-010I
documentation for information on linking event files to the condition file.
