Plotting format 1d 10:05 in gnuplot

How i able to plot this in gnuplot the following times in gnuplot?

But the graph does not seem to adapt the hours after the days.

set timefmt "%jd %H:%M"

in my test.csv there is:

0,1d 10:15
1,1d 10:05
2,1d 1:50
3,2d 3:30

plot "test.csv" enter image description here

As seen in the picture the time is not plotted correctly.

You have to tell gnuplot that your data separator is comma. Per default it is whitespace. In the example below skip the $Data datablock and in the plot command replace $Data by Test.csv. There, column2 is plotted versus column1. Maybe you want it the other way round, it's not clear from your question, graph and plot command.

Code:

### plotting time data
reset session

$Data <<EOD
0,1d 10:15
1,1d 10:05
2,1d 1:50
3,2d 3:30
EOD

set datafile separator comma
myTimeFmt = "%jd %H:%M"
set format y myTimeFmt time

plot $Data u 1:(timecolumn(2,myTimeFmt)) w lp pt 7 notitle
### end of code

Result:
