Master/Slave synchronization (optical)
Standard Synchronization:
Synchronizes the first sample in the recording for
each mainframe, prevents frequency drift of the sample rates within each
mainframe, synchronously exchanges every channel trigger connected to the
Master/Slave trigger bus to/from each connected mainframe and automatically
compensates for the cable length delay.
Extended Synchronization:
Standard synchronization and Start/Stop and
Pause of a recording across multiple mainframes, each controlled by a separate
Perception. (Stop recording is a non
-
synchronous action). Synchronous
manual trigger exchange (user software action to trigger all mainframes
synchronously). Calculated channel trigger exchange (requires Perception
V6.50 or higher).
For detailed specification, please refer to appendix "B3762–5.1 en (GEN3i
Portable Data Recorder)" on page 365.
The GEN series can be operated as a fully synchronized Multi
-
Mainframe
system with multiple mainframes using the Master/Slave synchronization
connector.
