.TH MSR_HOST_LATENCY 3 2006/02/27 "Libmseed API"
.SH DESCRIPTION
Calculate latency between last sample in a Mini-SEED record and the
host computer time.

.SH SYNOPSIS
.nf
.B #include <libmseed.h>

.BI "double  \fBmsr_host_latency\fP ( MSRecord *" msr " );"
.fi

.SH DESCRIPTION
\fBmsr_host_latency\fP calculates the latency in seconds of the
Mini-SEED data as the difference between current time in UTC of the
host computer and the time of the last sample in the record.

This routine is only really useful when dealing with a telemetered
data stream or something similar.

Double precision is returned, but the true precision is dependent on
the accuracy of the host system clock among other things.

.SH RETURN VALUES
\fBmsr_host_latency\fP returns seconds of latency or 0.0 on error
(indistinguishable from 0.0 latency).

.SH SEE ALSO
\fBms_intro(3)\fP and \fBmsr_unpack(3)\fP.
