Abstract This note demonstrates the application of a rigorous procedure for estimating the limiting standard deviation in the absolute timing, of periodic sources of known period, to the problem of the evaluation of the effects of the main source and instrumental parameters. The procedure is used to examine the case of the optical pulsar NP 0532. The results are given in diagrammatic form.
