When using FactoryTalk Historian times, follow these guidelines:
Use absolute or combined time expressions. Avoid using relative time
expressions. Multiple relative time expressions in a time range may
cause an incorrect start time or an error message, depending on the
context of the expression.
Relative and combined time expressions contain only a single
operator: either a single plus sign (+) or a single minus sign (-).
Additional operators can lead to unpredictable results. For example,
the following are not valid time expressions:
*+1d+4h
T-1d+12h
The name or short name for an interval used to denote FactoryTalk
Historian time is not case-sensitive.
