Data Types Parser Error (DTP0019): White space characters in literals are not valid.

The data types parser detected a blank in a literal. Blanks are only allowed in the non-empty text string literals. These literal types must always be enclosed by single quote characters, e.g., ' ' (blank only) or 'this text contains white spaces'.
In all other literal types (numeric, duration, time and date literals) whites spaces are invalid.

Further Info For information on literals refer to the topic "Literals according to IEC 61131-3". For information on user-defined data types and how to declare them refer to the chapter "User-defined data types".
