NI VeriStand Embedded Data Logger Receive Time should be saved in a format such that Excel can display it directly as a time stamp

[Luk04]

Hello

I have encountered problems while converting the Embedded Data Logger Receive Time information from VeriStand in double format into a Excel time stamp.

When I am introducing my logging data in .tdsm format I was not able to convert it into a "normal" time stamp with date and time information using the excel cell categories concerning time and data options. My solution to that was a exectuable which the NI support has generated for me. Otherwise it was not possible to me to make this conversion.

Either NI should publish the algorithm how to convert this double value into a "normal" time stamp or there should be a possibility to log the data in a easiliy understandble way for Excel to convert it.

Best greetings

I agree. The RT computer, PXI in my case, knows the time so why does it make a time stamp that converts to year 0112?
