Manual: 3.2.3. Prepare Process Data
The data file is an ASCII text file with its first column being a timestamp and then more columns of floating point numbers, one for each of the tags in the model. This file is semicolon-delimited. This file may have a header row with the names of the columns in it. It is essential that the order of the column in the data file is the same as the order of the rows in the tag file.
The timestamp may be in one of two formats:
- The standard European time format: dd.mm.yyyy hh:mm:ss.xxx
- The ISO 8601 format: yyyy-mm-dd hh:MM:ss.xxx
In both cases, the use of milliseconds '.xxx' is optional.
Here is a sample file that is semi-colon delimited.
