What OS do you have?

for nix systems you can use tar commmand, for windows - depends on what archive programm is installed on it.

Procedure

1. Enter the operating system command in Command Line.

Default value: Empty string (no command)

When the operating system command is called, you can specify the file name currently being processed with the following placeholders:

%f (file name)

%F (absolute file name including path)

2. Under Timeout (secs), specify the maximum runtime of the command in seconds.

When this time interval is exceeded, the adapter continues processing. The executable program continues to run in the background.

3. If you want the adapter to terminate the program to be executed in the event of a timeout, select Terminate Program After Timeout.
