I stand corrected. If you have a time(6) field it can be converted like you tried to. See example below:

     Request Text

     CREATE SET TABLE adhoc.time_test ,NO FALLBACK ,
          NO BEFORE JOURNAL,
          NO AFTER JOURNAL,
          CHECKSUM = DEFAULT
          (
           time_now TIME(6))
     PRIMARY INDEX ( time_now );


     Sel
     time_now,
     time_now (format 'hh:mi:ssbt')(char(11))  time_conv
     ,type(time_conv)
     from adhoc.time_test


     time_now      time_conv   Type(time_conv)
     13:23:56.000000   01:23:56 PM   CHAR(11)
     10:16:48.000000   10:16:48 AM   CHAR(11)
