I was trying to perform a Chromatic Calbration in the Monitor Centre (PsychoPy Standalone version 2024.1.5, under Windows 10) using the PR-650. After hitting a key to start the process once the initial red calibration square was displayed, Psychopy exited with the following message:
Traceback (most recent call last):

t1 = time.clock()
AttributeError: module ‘time’ has no attribute ‘clock’
Looking elsewhere, it seems “time.clock()” is a deprecated function in Python (AttributeError: module 'time' has no attribute 'clock' in Python 3.8 - Stack Overflow). There was only one instance of time.clock in the file referenced in the error message (“…psychopy_photoresearch\pr.py”) and — after swapping “time.clock” for “time.time” (based on the same stackoverflow reference) — the colour calibration seemed to work fine.
Assuming this is general problem, and my fix is appropriate, I would appreciate assistance in flagging this for updating in the next version so that others can benefit: I’m new to the forum, and have no experience with GitHub, version control, etc.
Cheers,
Andrew
