Saving a Time Stamp In Memory and retrieving it

I would like to store the time stamp in Flash memory. The memory is 8 bit. So how would I store it in byte format to the memory and retrieve the memory, then put it back together to get the time stamp back...

 

thanks

Where is this Flash memory you are trying to save to?  Is it built into your PC somewhere?  Some other device?

Hi,

 

a LabVIEW timestamp uses 16 bytes (or 128 bits) of memory. You will never store it in just 8 bits…

What best you can do is consider some reference time and store the difference i.e. no of seconds. At the time of retrieval also you can do the same.
