If you were applying the force to a single node, the command to input the MAPDL table would be f,node_numb,fx,%time_adj%.  If you are applying it to an area you could convert your csv data to a pressure by dividing by the area in excel and use the commands:

cmsel,s,named_selection     ! Mechanical named selection for the face.  Or could select some other way

sf,all,pres,%time_adj%
