BOOL, DATE, TIME data variables are presented in decimal digital format in the microSD Card. Users have the
option to convert this format to a more friendly format. For example, use ANY_TO_STRING function block to
convert BOOL data type (0, 1) to FALSE or TRUE. You can similarly do the same for DATE and TIME data types.
DATE data type is presented in differential decimal digital value between system baseline time
(1970/01/01,00:00:00) and current date value. Unit is millisecond.
Time should be absolute time value. Unit is second.

String data variables are enclosed in double quotation marks in the data log file.
The example below shows DSET1 using string variables and DSET2 using integers.
Micro800 controllers support the Recipe feature and allows users to store and
load a list of data to and/or from recipe data files using the RCP instruction. It
also allows users to download, upload, and delete Recipe data on the microSD
card through Connected Components Workbench.
A maximum number of 10 recipe sets is supported for a Micro800 program. Each
recipe can contain up to 128 variables, with a maximum of four (4) data string
variables per recipe. String variables can have a maximum of 252 characters.
Variations of the recipe are stored in separate files with unique file names. For
more information on how recipes are stored on the microSD card, see the
