Converting Timestamps
Serialtest for DOS uses a timebase of Pacific Standard Time during non daylight savings time hours and Pacific Daylight Time during daylight savings time hours. The analyzer always uses Greenwich Mean Time (also known as Universal Time Coordinates).
When importing a Serialtest for DOS file, the analyzer must determine if the file was recorded during daylight savings time or not before converting the timestamps. Because the rules for determining this can change, it is possible for the analyzer to convert the timestamps incorrectly, resulting in timestamps that are off by one hour.
Note: The raw timestamp value is the number of 100-nanosecond intervals since the beginning of January 1, 1601. This is standard Windows time.
