Whatever your plea bargained sentencing report called for.
Read it and discuss it with your prior attorney if you had one.
It will be a substantial number of days, and is up to the judge to decide when you return to court to seek amendment of your sentence.

If that is the attorney's fee I can't tell you contact him or her.? You should have terms of probation if you have plead guilty ask the lawyer for those terms and conditions.

Were you already convicted and looking to convert the fine amount owed to jail time? The answer may depend on the county that your conviction is in.
In Los Angeles County, generally you can convert an $1,800 (fine plus penalty assessment) for 13 days of county jail minus time already served.

Not sure what you're asking. There is typically no jail time on a first DUI if you pay the $2,200 fine.
If you want the fine broken into jail time, each court has its exchange rate (in Orange County, for instance, it used to be $30 per day) and that rate is supposed to be calculated on the base fine, not the penalty assessments.
So a $2,200 fine is probably a $1,000 fine with penalty assessments.

You mean in addition to the fine? Depends on the plea agreement.

What is a $2200.00 plea agreement? Typically all terms of a plea agreement are set out for your acceptance before you enter your plea, including jail time.

Your question is not clear enough. $2200 is typically the standard fine in a DUI case. There are a number of factors to consider including how many DUI's you have had in last 10 years, is there an accident with injury, what county you are in, etc.

If you have a plea agreement, you should know how much jail time you have to serve.

Your question is way too general. DUI's can range from misdemeanors to felonies.
