Capture time only shows 1 second resolution

Post by naltieri »

In picoscope 6 the waveform properties show the Capture Time i.e. the date and time a waveform was triggered by the scope. The reported Capture time only shows a resolution of 1 second, is there a way to obtain the capture time down to millisecond resolution.

Thanks

Hi

It isn't possible to get ms resolution as PicoScope 6 uses UTC time for determining its time stamps which is limited to a second resolution. The capture time reflects when the data has been pulled into PicoScope 6 rather than when it was captured on the device as the device itself has no concept of the time.

I can pass your comments onto our development team for consideration.
