The values for the date and time are read from the CNC.
The "Quantity" variable is available as a pre-defined user variable
When outputting numbers (e.g. measurement results), you can select the output format
(digits before and after the point) of the number to be engraved.
Instead of entering a fixed text in the engraving text field, you can specify the text to be
engraved via a text variable (e.g., _VAR_TEXT="ABC123").
