in above log.. i formed a transaction using "transaction startswith="ZPIMXTerminal.Send Start" endswith="ZPIMXTerminal.Send Start"

but I'm not sure how to display time parameters. I would like to see start time of transaction, end time of transaction and total duration. Along with that, I wanted to display the start and end time of "GetAckNak " in a table. Can anyone help?

transaction startswith="ZPIMXTerminal.Send Start" endswith="ZPIMXTerminal.Send Start"|eval starttime=_time|eval endtime=_time+duration

If you want to convert time to human readable format use this
|convert ctime(starttime) ctime(endtime)
