Mobile VIs support time stamp controls and indicators differently than VIs you run on Windows.

Time stamp controls and indicators support the following:

  • Resizing and changing the color of the increment and decrement buttons
  • Text justification and underlining text

The time stamp control is supported differently than LabVIEW for Windows.

Minimum and Maximum Time Values

The Windows Mobile operating system has a minimum time value of 00:00:01 a.m., Friday, January 1, 1904 Universal Time. The maximum time value is 06:28:15 a.m., Monday, February 6, 2040 Universal Time.

If a date is outside of the minimum and maximum range, you receive an error. With VIs you run on Windows, LabVIEW rolls over the value.

Editing Modes

The editing mode sets whether to edit the format and precision of the data using the default view or using format codes. You select the editing mode on the Display Format page in the Time Stamp Properties dialog box.

Default Editing Mode

Time stamp controls in support the Absolute time default format only.

Advanced Editing Mode

Use %<%.3X> to display the time with three digits of precision after seconds, %<%.4X> to display the time with four digits of precision, and so on.
