Time Stamp

Each line must contain a time stamp. The various components in the time stamp are specified in terms of absolute positions in relation to the start of the time stamp string.

1. Select the location of the time stamp as a Fixed Column or Free Form position.

2. Include year/month/day information:

Select the Yes check box so the year/month/day fields are enabled.

Type a position for the time stamp and the length of the year parameter.

3. To add hour and minute, select the appropriate check boxes and type the position and length information.

4. Enter the start and length values for the seconds parameters.

Times are referenced to the file date. If no file date is entered, then times are referenced to midnight on the date of the Day folder to which you are converting the data.

5. Enter any Multiplier/Offset values.
