Card with
Reference
Overview
To obtain the best timestamp accuracy you should connect the DAG card to
an external clock reference, such as a GPS or CDMA time receiver.
To use an external clock reference source, the host PC’s clock must be
accurate to UTC to within one second. This is used to initialize the DUCK.
When the external time reference source is connected to the DAG card time
synchronization connector, the card automatically synchronizes to a valid
signal.
