Definition

Means that the automation data field must be a character string. The field length specified in the "output length" field is valid.

Use

Procedure

If this field is set, the field in the import file must be transferred in the output length in character format. Be sure to use a "." as a decimal point.

Examples

A field is defined by the internal category P, length 4. The number of places is 6, and the number of places after the decimal point is 4. Therefore, the output length is 7.

In this way, the value "1.1" can be transferred by the following values:

  • 1.1
  • 1.10
  • 1.100
  • 1.1000
