Time stamps to string with seconds

[Solar Surfer]

Good Day

Im writing a program for my DAQ system. Its required that my

data is saved with hours, mins and secs. The get date/time

string VI seems to only output a string with the date and with

hours and minutes. 

How would I include the seconds into the outputed string.

Thank You for your time.

The vi has an boolean input 'want seconds' default is FALSE. Wire a TRUE and your done 🙂

For a more flexible output there is also the

Format Date/Time String Function

Owning Palette: String Functions

Requires: Base Package

Displays a timestamp value or a numeric value as time in the format you specify using time format codes. For example, %c displays locale-specific date/time. Time-related format codes include the following: %X (locale-specific time), %H (hour, 24-hour clock), %I (hour, 12-hour clock), %M (minute), %S (second), %<digit>u (fractional seconds with <digit> precision), and %p (a.m./p.m. flag). Date-related format codes include the following: %x (locale-specific date), %y (year within century), %Y (year including century), %m (month number), %b (abbreviated month name), %d (day of month), and %a (abbreviated weekday name).

Thank you for your input, i've managed to solve the issue with the 

get date/ time string VI. Was simple, just had to make one of the 

inputs true.

Will this string work on a Mac?
