The abbreviations for minutes (
m) and months (M) are case-sensitive.
Additionally, times that use 12-hour clocks designate morning hours with AM and
evening hours with PM. These abbreviations prefer uppercase and don’t use periods.
Certain features, such as
dashboard time ranges, display
only second and larger units and automatically convert units accordingly. For example,
dashboard time ranges automatically convert a manually entered custom time range
of 1ms to 0.001 seconds.
Cortex XCOR also automatically converts units in certain display-only
contexts. For example, dashboard panels might convert
the numeric values of data points depending on the unit type you designate in a
panel’s Unit > Time setting and the context
of that value.
If you select the Nanoseconds unit, Cortex XCOR interprets a numeric
value of 120 for a data point as 120 nanoseconds and displays it as 120ns. However,
if you select Days as the time unit, Cortex XCOR interprets the same
value as 120 days, converts it to the larger unit of months, and displays it as
4 months.
