Re: TS2000i Timestamps, Another Question

The results are in from the beta panel of experts <g>, and the 2000i server
saves tick data in the hh:mm:ss format.

Another good question from Bob...how does the 2000i "server" synchronize
the pc clock?  Do we need to synchronize the pc clock ourselves daily with
an atomic clock synchronization utility? Or is it unnecessary for
interpolation between the 30 sec datafeed time marks.

Another comment was made privately (and by Omega publicly a month or so
ago) that while the 2000i server saves data in the hh:mm:ss format, there
is no way one can  EXPORT the data in the format.

The more one digs into this thing, the more muddled it becomes.
