    Hi,

    Please can you tell me what units are used in the SMF records.
    In the header file there is
    char SMF123S1_TIME_ZC_ENTRY[16];  
                                     

    A STCK (which I understand ) is 8  bytes long... what are the other 8 bytes used for?
    Is it from an STCKE?

    regards

    Colin

    Hey Colin,

    You're right that SMF123S1_TIME_ZC_ENTRY (and all other time fields in the SMF records) are STCKE values and this is documented here:

    Kind Regards,

    Mark
