Specify when marking of the specified lot character string must start and end. Enter
the values in the columns “From” and “To”.
The value for the period end (column “To”) must be equal or larger than the period
start value (column “From”).

two or more periods.
Examples
• The lot unit is “Hour” and you want to set the period from 22:00 to 3:00 of the next
day. The hour interval is defined as a period of 24 hours. In this case you must
specify two separate periods. The first period covers the 2 hours from 22:00 to
23:59 and the second one runs from 0:00 to 3:00.
• The lot unit is “Day of week” and you want to set the period from Saturday to
Sunday. The week interval is defined as a period of 7 days from Sunday (start) to
Saturday (end). If you set “From Saturday To Sunday”, the lot function does not
work. In this case you must set two separate periods, “From Saturday To Saturday”
and “From Sunday To Sunday”.
