Spaceholders for Date and Time of Day
When printing out a message text the following takes place:
•
The spaceholder "D" for the date is replaced by the current date.
•
The spaceholder "T" for the time of day is replaced by the current time.
The output format of the date and the time of day can be configured. You must do this in data
block 1, parameter block 4, on the memory submodule ( 6.3.3).
The following is the default output format:
•
For the date:<Day>.<Month>.<Year>
•
For time of day: <Hour>:<Minute>:<Second>
