A few months ago I came across documentation for modifying CSV files exported from DirectSoft for use with POV. Specifically, the documentation described defining number types in a fifth column added to the CSV file. For example, a 16 bit BCD integer would be referenced as BCDI16 and a 32 bit BCD integer would be referenced as BCDI32 in the fifth column of the CSV file. I 've recently tried to locate this documentation online and cannot find it anywhere. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

The info is on page 13 & 14 of the Koyo driver communications help topic.

I am familiar with the information you cited and it differs from the information I was describing. A line in the CSV file if opened in WordPad would appear as:
V2550,vHeaterMaxPower%,,Maximum Heater Power %,BCDI32
Element, Nickname, Wiring Info, Description, Number Format
My problem is that I don't recall what all the different format designations.

Are you asking? Or do you want the value range allowed per data type?
BCDI16 = BCD 16 bit
BDCI32 = BCD 32 bit double word
SI16 = Signed Integer 16 bit
SI32 = Signed Integer 32 bit
UI16 = Unsigned Integer 16 bit
UI32 = Unsigned Integer 32 bit

That's what I was looking for. Thanks! Where is this information located?

Doing a quick search, it is vaguely referenced on pages 19 & 20, however I don't believe it is documented anywhere else. So I apologize for that, I will send this to the vendor to get this added to the driver help file.

Page 13 and 14 of the driver manual has the information in the 2 attached images. You do have to relate one to the other, but the info is there.
