See what Howard wrote for an answer to my question.
I need WWV accurate timing to some fraction of a second. I figure that I can get current time by querying an external device, such as a GPS (see my other post on this topic), converting that time to seconds since 1/1/1904 12am, then calling TimSetSeconds() so I can use TimGetSeconds() for subsequent time queries. However, that doesn't align the tick count to the second, so I don't know which second a particular tick is part of. If I had some Palm radio clock hardware, there is a pulse that happens at the top of the minute that I could use to sync up the ticks. Then I could relate the result from TimGetTicks() to figure out how far into the second I am and do fractional seconds. alan ---Original Message--- From: "Palm Developer Forum" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: Palm Developer Forum <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Date: Mon, 6 May 2002 16:31:38 -0700 Subject: RE: ticks time vs. secs time I think you're asking whether the tick clock stays in sync with the time of day clock while the device is "on". In other words, if you poll the time of day clock until it rolls over to the next second and then sample the tick clock, can you simply add SysTicksPerSecond() to the tick clock to determine when the time of day clock will roll over again? I think the answer is yes, assuming the device stays "on" during that entire time. However, I'm not sure. I'm also not sure I understand your question ;-) -- Peter Epstein -- For information on using the Palm Developer Forums, or to unsubscribe, please see http://www.palmos.com/dev/support/forums/ -- For information on using the Palm Developer Forums, or to unsubscribe, please see http://www.palmos.com/dev/support/forums/
