This dialog box is
displayed when creating an ASCII interface and selecting the
Entity tab.
On the
Entity tab, double-click an
attribute in the right pane.
A
Column dialog box is displayed.
Note: The header of the dialog box changes based on the attribute
when creating an ASCII interface. For example, if you selected the entity Idle
Time, the title would be column "idle time."
The column number defaults from the
Interface entry window based on the order in
which the entities were selected, but can be changed.
Select a style from the list box to determine how the hours and
minutes should display.
If you want seconds to be included, select the
include seconds check box.
If you selected a style including hours and minutes, and you want
them separated:
Select the
separator check box.
Choose a character to separate the years from hours and
minutes. You can enter either a single character or an ASCII code that consists
of at least 2 numerical digits (use a leading zero if the required ASCII code
is between 0 and 9).
Note: The example and length at the bottom of the dialog box updates
automatically to show a duration value formatted according to the current
settings.
Select the
quoted value check box to
put quotes around the data if you are interfacing with a system that requires
inputs in the form value.
Click
OK. You return to the
Entity tab of the
Interface window.
