Data2's "Format String" is made up of placeholders that indicate where and how the variables in
Data3-DataN should be inserted. The table below shows what % character should be used to
format the string. In general, %s will work for most cases.
Formatted String
Variable Type to
Insert % Description
String, Display String %s Inserts the text in string format. Hex characters are
converted into ASCII printable characters like "h0D".
Timecode %s Inserts time in the format "00:00:02.01"
Timecode %d Inserts the number of frames – ie: 61
Integer %d Inserts number without leading zeros or spaces. To add
leading zeros, use %0nD where "0" indicates to pad
with zeros and "n" is number of zeros to pad. For
example: %03d will insert the number 2 as 002.
Integer %X Inserts the number as a hex string. For example, the
number 11 would be inserted as 0B.
Integer %p No conversion to ASCII will be made, and the number
will be placed in the string. For example, the number
13 (hex 0D) will be inserted as a Hard Return.
Decimal %f Inserts one decimal place OR number of places
specified after "." preceding "f". For number 1.12345,"
%.1f" inserts 1.1. "%.2f" inserts 1.12. "%.4f" inserts
1.1234.
