This method enables the generation of a PLC variable of the type DATE_AND_TIME or DT from a standardized ISO8601 time format (e.g. YYYY-MM-DDThh:mm:ss). DT corresponds to the number of seconds starting from the date 01.01.1970. If the conversion was successful the method returns TRUE, otherwise it returns FALSE.
