Writing values to CSV file and some data is randomly shifting to another column.

Hello!

I have a problem that when i leave my measuring station running for over a long period of time, the values are sometimes shifted in the middle of the data file - not in the right column. (see added picture of the file)

For example, I get 3 hours of normal data in the right columns, than the values shift a column to the right (or left), and I get these shifts in the file, just a couple of lines, and then the values go back to normal. Sometimes I lose one hour of data at that shift point and then the values get back again in the right columns for another 12h.

I am running SDfat library, and I have a switch that closes the file, before I remove the SD card.

I tried different code variations, but this seems to happen at random.

I am also adding the code (in attachment) that I am running on my arduino UNO, that has 3 different sensors and an LCD and this SD card slot shield.

Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

No one?

Someone must have had this happen or can at least try to explain? :o

I tried changing the SD card but it still does this data shifts.

Thank you.

I can't see anything obvious wrong, but I'm suspicious of your interrupt routine. Can you get rid of the stuff in it regarding time and do it in the main loop instead?
