Device Monitor - how much unit of time is "Sa/s"?

[pablosscripts]

I'm trying to figure out how long I've held down the button for, does 100Sa/s = 100ms or 1 second in GPC2?

Think that is the chart measurement IDK. lol! Know I figured the rest though..... if you have a 1000ms on dial to the right of that and had a 1000ms push of the button it would reach only one of the blocks which would be 1 second push of the button. Now you adjust dial to 100ms with same 1000ms push of button you would have 10 of the 100ms blocks which is your 1000ms push. Hope this helps!

Try something like this for a quick print of the hold time. Of course change the button to whatever you want to measure. I may do one for all buttons and publish it. Was trying to do the same thing and this is the best I could come up with for precise time readings.

Code: Select all

#pragma METAINFO("Validate Time", 1, 0, "The_Rabid_Taco")
 
#include <XB1.gph>
 
main {
    if(event_release(XB1_RS)) printf("Held for: %d", time_active(XB1_RS));
}

Makes sense thank you. Of course it would correspond to the dial, that should have been obvious to me!

I still wonder what "Sa/s" stands for. Hummmm...

Thanks!

I was using the monitor tool, taking a screenshot, cutting and pasting it so I could overlay the line over the start of the block. Then I repeated this about 10 times to get the average length. Your idea is MUCH better lol

It means "Samples per Second", the Device monitor receives one sample each 10ms, or 100 samples per second.

It is important to note an script can change the values at 1ms base time (or even less), those quick changes will not be accurately reproduced on Device Monitor.
