Reducing file names

I have a script which includes an FTP. The filename is too long for my target area. The filename is HD012_ABCD_EFGH_061004_F_300_40. I need to the filename to be HD012_ABCD_EFGH_061004_F_. Any ideas.

SYNCE_GET_CONNECTION_FILENAME(3)			       http://www.synce.org/				  SYNCE_GET_CONNECTION_FILENAME(3)

NAME
synce_get_connection_filename - get synce connection filename SYNOPSIS
#include <synce.h> bool synce_get_connection_filename(char ** filename); bool synce_set_connection_filename(const char * filename); bool synce_set_default_connection_filename(); DESCRIPTION
These functions are used with the vdccm(1) and dccm(1) connection daemons only. They are of no use when using odccm(1). synce_get_connection_filename() provides a string describing the location of the synce device connection file, written by (v)dccm. The default file is ~/.synce/active_connection. synce_set_connection_filename() sets an alternative connection file name to use. synce_set_default_connection_filename() resets the connection filename to its default value. RETURN VALUE
Returns true if successful. synce_get_connection_filename() fails and returns false if filename is an invalid pointer, or for any of the reasons synce_get_directory() would fail. synce_set_connection_filename() returns false if filename contains '..' or is too long. SEE ALSO
