     *  ''%%TIMESCALE_PREFERRED%%'': Value should be set to the name of the timescale table you've copied into your database.     *  ''%%TIMESCALE_PREFERRED%%'': Value should be set to the name of the timescale table you've copied into your database.
     * ''%%DISPLAY_LAYER_[1-9]%%'': Value should be set to the feature class that should be displayed when the model is loaded. Increment the number at the end of the name string for any other added feature. Note that you need to use the following notation if you have simple, unstyled feature classes: ''%%$PGD$|<Your feature class name>%%'', if you have styled layers files, the syntax becomes: ''%%$PGD$|DATABASE_LAYERS\<Your feature class name>%%''.      * ''%%DISPLAY_LAYER_[1-9]%%'': Value should be set to the feature class that should be displayed when the model is loaded.
