Changing Slide Control Scale Range

I am creating a program that will allow the user to select a range of time over which data will be analyzed.  Is there a way to set the slide control range to start at the beginning of the data set (t0) and go to the time at the end (tf)?  I can change the values using a property node, but the values are for the start and stop and increments are doubles.
 
Thanks.

But those properties only accept double data types and I want the slider to display the time data types if that is possible.

Right click on the scale and choose display format ... Under the scale choose absolute time, now your scale will be in time format.

Thanks, that works great.  One more question though.  When I move the nobs, the number showing over the nob is the double value of the time.  Is there any way to change that data type too?  I looked for it in the properties, but I couldnt find it.

Change the format for the digital display. The tip strip will be formatted the same as the digital display.
 
So far, you have only changed the scale format.

Well that was simple enough.  Part of my inability to find these options has to do with me having to try and read a Japanese version when Japanese is not my native language, so sorry about not being albe to figure those out and thanks for your help!
