Accuracy of time stamp in file

I'm rying to get the best way to display the system time at the start of my data collection. Basically have the system time show up as the first sample +/- .010 seconds. I am wondering if this VI will do it for me. It is a basic stream to file VI with a "get cpu time" if the loop iteration is 0. Let me know if you guys think this will do what I am trying to accomplish.

I'm having some trouble understanding why you are removing the start time information and then putting it back in. Your waveform data type has a t0. Have you looked at using the Export Waveforms to Spreadsheet File?
Also, the wiring of the iteration terminal to an indicator, then using a local variable, then doing a comparison is silly. If you want to do something only on the first iteration, wire the iteration terminal directly to the case statement selector.

How do I get time stamped Wav files created in L7 to lock to time code?

Hello everyone,
I did a search about time stamping audio files and was VERY happy to discover the "broadcast wave" format timestamps audio files! So I'm running tests, but cant seem to get logic to actually place the audio file according to the time stamp!
Method: I'm currently scoring a film, and have each cue as separate logic files. To sync Logic's timecode and the TC window burn, I set in the "sync" song settings that bar 1 play at the start of the cue (no offset). For example, If I want to start writing a cue at 1:06:27:05, I just tell logic that bar 1 starts at 1:06:27:05 and start writing. Both logics TC & The window burn TC match perfectly. When I bounce, I choose my bars and bounce as a "wave," which creates a file with time code stamped. I verify this by looking at the file in the audio window, which shows a clock icon, as well as the specific smpte time code if you select the file before importing into the audio bin.
From here, how do I get logic to automatically place the audio files according to their time code? I've tried "import audio" directly into the arrange page as well as dragging the file over from the audio bin and neither work. I've also tried then "cutting" these and "paste at original position" hoping it would read the time code, but instead just pastes it where it was originally imported, not according to the time code.
So I'm stumped! What am I doing wrong?
thanks in advance for your help!

Highlight the regions and then from the audio menu select "move regions to original record positions"

Help adding current Date and Time stamp to file name

Need to add date/time stamp to file name without time change creating new files

We have setup our application to save data once a trigger event occurs. We also need the date/time stamp as part of the file name. We used Format Date/Time String and concatenated it into the file name. It all works good, but as the time changes (seconds, minutes, etc.) it causes the Write to File to create a new file with the new filename. Is there a way to create the file and save/latch/buffer the time in the file name so that it doesn't create a new file for every second?
I've attached a shot of the relevant part of our VI. It's all in a big while loop. The data save is in a case/switch so that when it is triggered it starts saving. (The for loop is to split the data up
into 4 different files). Like I said, it all works except new files are created every second as the time changes instead of just putting it all in one file with the initial time in the file name.

I need a loop in order to use a shift register. I cannot stop the outer while loop (because it would stop the hardware from collecting data), and I cannot add loops inside which bogs down the processor to where the app stops. I've attached a simpler version of my VI which illustrates the problem. While the button is pressed (the trigger) it should save the data (in this case just cycle numbers) into one file with the initial date/time. But, you can see that it creates 1 file/second. I tried using shift registers, but without adding extra loops I can't see how to do it. Thanks

Time Stamp in File attachement name

HI all,
I have done a proxy to mail scenario and sending data as attachement to the mail with the required name say "abcd.csv"
everything is working fine...now the doubt is...
is there any possibilty we can add time stamp to the file name like "abcd_timestamp.csv" or "abcd.csv_timestamp" ..with writing or updating modules we can achive this but is there any simple way to do this..?
please give ur inputs.
Thanx

HI,
With MessageTransformBean you need to provide the static name for the file.
But Michal had given nice blog to have adapter module that will provide the dynamic file name.
Refer the code he had given

Ignore time stamp in file name to load infopackage

Hi
Everyday a .csv file gets written into a particular folder in my application server. the filename is as TESTYYYYMMDDHHMM.csv.
Now i have written a program to pick up the file with TESTYYYYMMDD, but the time stamp doesnt match, hence i have to ignore it when i read the file.
Can someone please tell me some simple logic/Abap code to ignore the time stamp in the name? i have tried using TESTYYYYMMDD*.csv, but that doesnt work.
Please help. this is very urgent.
Thanks
Sushmita

I read the content of the folder into an internal table usign EPS_GET_DIRECTORY listing. i cud read that into a variable, using a simple loop.
and pass it to the Infopackage as file name.

*.eml Time Stamp - Select File in Windows Explorer Changes the Modified Date

The Windows Live Mail *.eml files time stamp is getting changed to the current date when the file is selected in the Windows Explorer! I save backup copies of important E-mails to folders on the Hard Drive and then synchronize them with the same folders on other LAN Hard Drives for backup archives. When these E-mail files are selected or opened from the Windows Explorer in the Windows 7 OPS the Modified Date Time Stamp is changed to the current date automatically! This action creates a real problem when doing later synchronizations of all of the folders! The date will not be the original date of the E-mail and the original file will be over copied with the file with the newest date stamp. I stopped Indexing on the *.eml files and that stopped the time stamp change when overcopy synchronization, but if the file is selected during a viewing in Windows Explorer then the Time Stamp is updated to the current date again! A solution to this problem would be greatly appreciated if anybody knows of one. Thanks - - - Shorto

The Date and Timestamp changing issue in Windows 7 has a two part fix!
1. Disable the Indexing of the *.eml file type in the Indexing Options located by Clicking on "Control Panel" - "Indexing Options" - Advanced Button - File Types Tab - scroll down to the .eml file type and uncheck the Box then click OK to finish, so
that the Email type of files won't be Indexed.
2. Delete the Registry Entry listed below, be sure to Export and Save the original Key so it could be Restored if something goes wrong! \HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\PropertySystem\PropertyHandlers
and Delete the .eml entry
That should fix the problem with the changing Date/Timestamp of Email Files. For more information read CarlS's WindowsSeven Fourm thread where I also have more input:
http://www.sevenforums.com/browsers-mail/35334-eml-files-timestamps-updated-constantly.html
This should give you a better understanding on the problem and the Fix. - - - Shorto

   formatter = new SimpleDateFormat(pattern);
   String output = formatter.format(time);
   int i = output.indexOf("-");
   String fileName = "c:/" + output.substring(0,i) + ".txt";

Writing time stamp to file

Take a look at the attached pic.
Okay, now how can I have the time stamp written to the file along with the other data?
It should be an easy thing but I can't make it work.
Any comments will be helpful.
Thanks

A timestamp in not a signal data type so you can't use the merge signals. This is how I would do it. The convert to dynamic data type is probably optional. I hardly ever work with that.

Trimming Time Stamp in File Name using IC

Hello,
scenario is File to File without mapping. We are using Integrated configuaration to achieve this.
Issue is on target side file name is being written as xyz.ddmmyyyy-ssssss
but we need to eliminate milliseconds and need target file name as xyz.ddmmyyyy only.
any inputs on how to achieve this please? I am struck here as we cant use UDF since we do not have mappings.
Thanks.

Hello,
Aside from scripts, you can use an adapter module to fulfill your requirement:

File name with Dateand time stamp.

Hi All,
I want to generate a file with a date and time stamp.
For that in File Receiver adaptor i am using option "Add Time Stamp" in File Construction mode. however it is generationg file name as: FileName_20082104_121211_645.txt . In this I don't know what these last three characters "_645" are? And In the File name i only want a file name with datetime stamp . I don't require underscore in between. for eg: FileName_20082104121211.txt (FileName_dateTime.txt)
Can anybody suggest me the way to achive this?
Thanks,
Atul

@FileName_20082104_121211_645
The date time stamp in XI's file adapter will be in that format. This is to avoid over writing of files created simultaneously at the same time. So the last 3 digits is a form of an unique id to distinguish between the same.
In case you want the format as FileName_20082104_121211, use the dynamic configuration and create the file name inside the mapping itself and pass it across.
To get an idea about the same, ref:
/people/michal.krawczyk2/blog/2005/11/10/xi-the-same-filename-from-a-sender-to-a-receiver-file-adapter--sp14 - an usage of the same.

File Time Stamp

hi,
I have to compare the two file time stamp , one file is on my local machine and the other file is on my web server.
I am using :-
long t= urlC.getLastModified(); // to get the last modified time for a file on my web server.
and for my local file:-
long ut= f.lastModified(); // to get the time for my local file.
I need to compare this two time to know that if i have new file or not. If i have a old file I copy and paste the new file on my machine. The problem is after copy and paste both time should be same since the modified time is same for both file, but i think when i use the f.lastModified() on my local file its giving me the last accessed time rather then modified time and this way even though the file are same after i paste the latest one the time stamp results are different.
Any ideas on this ...........
The goal is to compare a time stamp of one local file with a file on my web server. if my local file is old then user needs to get this new file and replace the old file on his system.
Problem: After replacement, eventhough file is same its timestamp result are different. The modified time is same in the file property, but for some reason a call to f.lastModified()is getting the accessed time which is different since its takes the time when we paste the new file.

We've seen this to and it seems AFPTCP.NLM doesn't notice the DST
change. The only fix I'm aware of it to unload and then reload
AFPTCP.NLM (or restart the server, which whilst brutal can sometimes be
cleaner).

SAP PI - Windows OS Generated Time Stamp

Hi Experts,
     PI should pick the Files from FTP location based on the File create time (This is not a time stamp on file name but a windows(OS) generated one). Is it possible in SAP PI?
Regards,
Aniruddha

Hi,
This is possible in NFS protocal Processing Sequenc By Date
●      Processing Sequence (for transport protocol File System (NFS))
If you used placeholders when specifying the file name, define the processing sequence of the files:
○       By Name: Files are processed alphabetically by file name.
○       By Date: Files are processed according to their time stamp in the file system, starting with the oldest file
