6. Synchronization of REI2’s internal clock
REI2 can be synchronized by means of the keyboard, the external line or via radio with the
LinkGate system. If necessary, synchronization can be corrected by putting the internal clock
forward or back.
6.1. Synchronization
Through this function, REI2’s internal clock is synchronized. The operation is performed by
inserting the time of synchronization, confirming each field (hour, minutes, ….) with the
<ENT>
key and then the date.
Attention:
To be able to carry out synchronization the start line must be’at rest’ when <
F4>
is
pressed (open for line N/O, closed for line N/C). If the line is not ‘at rest’, the message
‘!!!ATTENTION!!! START line unable to give synchronization impulse………’
will appear.
With:
•
<F2>
the inserted data can be modified if a mistake has been
•
<F4>
to confirm synchronization data. With the next start impulse, the internal clock starts
•
<F5
> to return to the previous menu.
6.2. Modifying synchronization value
In certain situations it may be necessary to change the synchronization of REI2 to align it with other
devices which cannot be resynchronized. After establishing the gap in synchronization between the
two devices (for example with a stop in parallel), insert its value as
‘Time change’
(paying
attention to the alignment; for example, 3 hundredths should be inserted as 300 ten-thousandths).
The date can also be changed. Each value should be confirmed with
<ENT>
.
The enabled function keys are:
•
<F1> Time+
to change the sign of variation, with each press it enables the increase or reduction
of values
•
<F3> Correct
to change any incorrectly inserted data
•
<F4> OK
to carry out correction of synchronization
•
<F5> menu
to quit the function.
6.3. Synchronization verify
Calling up this function makes REI2 ready to receive an impulse from a line (main or LinkPod) or
the LinkGate system
The message
SYNCHRONIZATION VERIFY
–
Wait for impulse…
appears on the display.
When REI2 receives an impulse, the channel the impulse comes from and the date and time when it
was acquired are printed on the printed strip.
6.4. Signal
With this function a synchronization impulse for the synchronization of other devices can be
generated. When the function is activated, a request is made for the time and date for generation of
the impulse. Every value must be confirmed with
<ENT>
.
