IRIG-B
• All Nexus® 1262/1272 meters are equipped to use IRIG-B for time synchroniza-
tion.
• If IRIG-B is connected, this form of time synchronization takes precedence over the
internal clock. If the GPS Signal is lost, the internal clock takes over time keeping
at the precise moment the signal is lost.
Line Frequency Clock Synchronization
• All Nexus® meters are equipped with Line Frequency Clock Synchronization, which
may be enabled or disabled for use instead of IRIG-B. If Line Frequency Clock
Synchronization is enabled and power is lost, the internal clock takes over at the
precise moment power is lost.
Internal Clock Crystal
• All Nexus® meters are equipped with internal clocks crystals which are accurate to
20ppm, and which can be used if IRIG-B is not connected and/or Line Frequency
Clock Synchronization is not enabled.
DNP Time Synchronization
• Using CommunicatorPQA® software, you can set the meter to request time syn-
chronization from the DNP Master. Requests can be made from once per minute to
once per day. See the
Nexus® 1252/1262/1272/1450/1500+ DNP User Manual
for
instructions. You can download the manual from EIG’s website:
