Entering Values
Physical Units
When entering a physical unit, you can enter the value and indicate the unit of measurement.
For example, for a distance you can enter "1.5 m”, “150 cm”, “4.921 ft” or “1.5”.
If no unit is specified, the unit used is the default unit defined in the customer settings.
Time
You can enter a time data either in absolute or relative mode:
| > | In absolute mode, enter the date and time as YYYY/MM/DD, hh:mm:ss.sss, DD/MM/YYYY, hh:mm:ss.sss or MM/DD/YYYY hh:mm:ss.sss (the default format is defined in the customer settings). |
| > | In relative mode, enter a period with respect to the origin of the data to be processed in the form J hh:mm:ss.sss or directly in seconds, minutes or hour (123.5 s, 2.004 min, 0.057 h) |
When entering a period (From, To), if you do not specify the start, the period starts at the origin of the data to be processed. If the end date is not specified, the period stops at the end of the data to be processed.
