I know about using timestamps (an initial and a current) to get time data each time a loop is run, or using a for loop to add increments of the amount of time that was supposed to occur between each sample measured from a device. However, I would like to be able to get the actual time that each sample was taken. For instance, I've got a while loop with a DAQ Assistant, set up to read 100 samples each time it's run at, say 1kHz. I'm reading that data into a queue to be saved in a second loop, but I don't have accurate time data. I know I could use the time increment that each sample was supposed to be taken, but this isn't necessarily accurate, especially when, during the first few iterations of my measurement loop, the time for the functions and vi's in the loop to all be implemented varies before it becomes more consistant. Can anyone tell me if there is a build in attribute or a way to set something up to time everytime the "readmx" function reads 1 sample from a particular channel?
