Signal Marker Dates and Times read from External File

I have an automatically produced csv file with dates and times.
For example:

date,time
20171206,1430
20171207,1030
[...]

I want to put signal markers on the bar containing each date and time.
There may be 10s or potentially 100s of signal markers.

I'm creating a script to take this file as input and produce a second file
that contains the IRT code for a signal.

(DATE=20171206 and TIME=1430) or (DATE = 20171207 and TIME = 1030) [or ... ]

I then paste that code into the IRT Signal definition and save it.
