Time can be stored as a number of milliseconds past a chosen starting point, also known as the epoch.

In the Tygron Platform, a time in milliseconds of 0, corresponds to 00:00:00:000 January 1st, 1970 in the UTC time zone.

Notes

  • Items in the Tygron Platform can store time as an attribute, in which case this number is stored as a double.
When interpreted by the Tygron Platform, this double (decimal) number is first converted to a long number (no decimals, but larger range) before interpreting this as a time offset in milliseconds.
Keep this in mind when manually adjusting attributes representing time in milliseconds, or when interpreting time data using the API.
