How To Fix C4005 - & does not allow interval values

C4005 - Overview

• Message type: E = Error

• Message class: C4 - CTMS_SYNTAX_CHECK

• Message number: 005

• Message text: & does not allow interval values

What causes this issue?

Interval values are not allowed. Only absolute values can be entered.
When you maintain a characteristic, you use the <LS>Interval values
allowed</> indicator to define whether you can assign intervals as
values to the characteristic. This indicator is not selected for this
characteristic.
Interval values are only allowed for multiple-value characteristics,
because the system interprets intervals as a series of individual
values - even if you have set this indicator in the characteristic.

How to fix this error?

If you want to use interval values for a multiple-value characteristic,
select the indicator in the characteristic.
