Hello,

We have to compare the files generated by PCAN View on two diffent channels.
In the header of the log files, there are 2 start times.
Which one has the best accuracy ?

Regards,
Laurent.

Hi,

both startimes wil have the same accuracy. This is just the time when the trace was started. It is the standard Windows time format, which is also used in Excel etc.

Here the defenition:

$STARTTIME
Format: Floating point, Point as decimal separator.
Value: Integral part = Number of days that have passed since 12/30/1899.
Fractional Part = Fraction of a 24 hour day that has elapsed, resolution is 1 Millisecond.

At the moment it is: 41928.6982778356

regards

Michael
