Command ===>The following additional considerations apply to using the Start Date Time field:
- This is an optional field and is applicable to options 1 and 5 only.
- By default, this field displays the current date and time. If you do not want to display records based on date and time, leave the field blank.
- If entering values for Start Date Time, you must enter values for both the date and the time.
Entering only one value displays a Both Start Date and Time must be specified message at the bottom of the panel. Entering an invalid value displays an error in the panel's top-right corner. - If you enter a start time with fewer than 6 digits, the product adds 0 automatically. 0 is a valid value for the start time.
- The following are applicable to both wrap-around and non wrap-around scenarios:
- If the Start Date Time value entered is less than the Date Time value of all TRAN or EVNT trace records present in the Trace Table, the display of trace records start from the oldest trace entry present in the Trace Table.
- If the Start Date Time value entered is greater than the Date Time value of all TRAN or EVNT trace records present in the Trace Table, no trace records are returned.
- If the Trace Table has TRAN or EVNT trace records with Date Time equal to and/or greater than the entered Start Date Time value, trace records equal to and/or greater than the entered Start Date Time value are returned.
- Together, the start date and time form a value for the keyword STRTDTM in the format MMDDYYYYHHMMSS.
