Re: DROP OUT OF DATA WHEN GPS CORRECTS TIME IN WINSDRGary
The log file has a string of entries such as:
1. Adjust computer time by 393.961 seconds
2. GPS time not set: lck 00:03 diff:0adj:0 sats:2/14 5:1E:0
3. min buffer to old tome error: diff=3D189
4. ADC:Id:saas readSts:4/13 5:1E:0
After the data drops out then it resumes logging data until it attempts =
to correct time again. It does not seem to matter whether the computer =
clock is set to check the time through the internet or such checking is =
disabled.
I really appreciate your trying to help me.

Hi James,
=20
I had a similar problem with Vista. I had "set computer time " set =
to enable . After a period of time (hour to days ) Winsdr would start =
to produce errors and then crash. There is some kind of conflict =
between the GPS derived time and the Windows operating system. My fix =
was to disable the "set computer time" function and let the Winsdr time =
be independent of the computer time and use the internet time on the =
computer. The data is tagged with the GPS time so there is no error in =
the seismic data.=20
=20
I have been told by Angel that Vista does not allow the time to be =
set by any source other than manual or internet time services .
=20
I admit I don't fully understand the interaction but Vista has this =
and many other frustrating idiosyncrasies. I did not have this problem =
with the XP home edition .

Hi James,

Windows has a service called "Windows Time Service" that tries =
to keep your computer time. Maybe it is doing just that and you end up =
with packets with weird timestamps. Just a thought.
=20
You can turn off this service.
