DAQ Timestamp information without waveform output

Hi all,

 

I am using 8.6 to modify one DAQ program trying to broadcast data via internet.Now I am trying to get the timestamp information. I know it will be easier if the Read VI output is waveform. 

 

Unfornatly, in the original program, the Read VI output was chosen to be  "Scaled & Binary Arrays". So I am guessing this means the timing informatin was not recorded then?

 

Is there any way I can get the scaled, binary arrays and the time information at the same time? 

 

Btw, I ran this DAQ program and got one saved file from this program, there was some kind of header including when the test was performed. 

 

The saved file would show,

 

Testing time: xxxx/xx/xx xx:xx pm

00:00:10 xx

00:00:20 xx

 

I guess there must be some way get this timestamp information without the waveform output? The program is a big one. I could not post all the libries and subvis here. Sorry about this.

 

Any ideas?  Thank you very much.

If you are trying to modify the original program, that must mean you have access to get inside of it.

 

Why don't you post the original program so we can see what it is doing, especially the "Read VI" VI since that seems to be the start of your problem?  Is it using traditional DAQ drivers?  If so, you may want to convert the program so it uses the DAQmx driver.
