The item contains a time value in the same format as in the old Step-5 PLCs. In the client, you see a string such as: 999.3. The construction is like a BCD interpretation, but the digits are twisted.
The example above looks like the following in the memory of the PLC:
0x3999
Another example, 0x2345, in the memory of the PLC is 345.2 as the item value.
