The Start value is exactly what it sounds like, namely the number of the first wire that is numbered using the series in question.

 

The Start value consists of a prefix and an integer that is incremented with the Step.

 

In the example above, the prefix is 0 and the integer 1. Each wire-number will begin with the prefix, followed by the incremented integer, which gives a result of 01, 02, 03 and so on.

 

The prefix may consist of one or multiple letters as well. It is even possible to have a prefix consisting of multiple digits, but that may require a separator character, to make the distinction between prefix and the incremented integer unambiguous.

 

The table below, gives several examples of valid start values, and the result when the step is set to 1.
