Here is an interesting issue, DTN once sent the wrong time to the Box over
night, all the time for the next day's data was bad in fact the program I was
running even reset our computers all files created that day had to be fixed with
scan disk. DTN could only fix the box over night. I was able to fix the data,
the next morning. If you were using your computer clock and set it each day that
would not happen. So the ability to use which ever suits the user is important.

Dear Mr. Hill,
TS 2000 will give the time stamp of the Data Provider, not the PC time. If
you are using BMI, it will give you the time that is stamped from BMI's Data
Manager.
If you have any further questions, please feel free to contact us.
Thank you,

Is it true that TS 2000 time stamps real time tick data via
the PC clock and not the time stamp used by the data source (like BMI). If
so, why? The PC clock is totally unreliable, therefore, all system testing
with tick data becomes unreliable.
