Hi The difference in seconds between the start phase and the end phase divided by the number of seconds duration gives you the parts in whatever of the error.
If you see 1us ( = 1x10^-6 seconds) of change in a second, you are off by 1 ppm (or 1x10^-6). If you see 1 us of change in 1,000 seconds you are off by 1 ppb (or 1x10^-9). At a bit over 10 days (1,000,000 seconds) your 1 us change is 1 ppt (or 1x10^-12).
