Hi Jason,

There is no scaling factor required. The system time is based on the rate of an internal crystal oscillator, so it should be pretty solid.

The fact that the two intervals you reported would be indicative of two different internal clock rates is suggestive that something is happening on the logging end. What are you using to collect and log the data? My suspicion is that data from the sensor may be being dropped as it comes in because it isn’t being collected fast enough. The most recent packets would be dropped and the logged timestamps would correspond to old packets.
