Preventing
time-stamps
drift
To prevent the DAG card clocks time-stamps drifting against UTC, the
master can be synchronised to the host PC’s clock which in turn utilises
NTP. This then provides a master signal to the slave card.
The cards are locked together by connecting the synchronisation connector
ports of both cards with a standard RJ-45 Ethernet cross-over cable.
Configure one card to synchronize to the PC clock and output a RS-422
synchronization signal to the second card.

The slave card configuration is not shown, the default configuration is
sufficient.
6.2.3 Card with Reference Time Synchronization
Description
The best timestamp accuracy occurs when a DAG card is connected to an
external clock reference, such as a GPS or CDMA time receiver.
Pulse signal
from external
sources
The DAG synchronisation connector accepts a RS-422 Pulse Per Second
[PPS] signal from external sources.
This is derived directly from a reference source, or distributed through the
Endace TDS 2 [Time Distribution Server] module which allows two DAG
cards to use a single receiver.
More cards can be accommodated by daisy-chaining TDS-6 expansion
units to the TDS-2 unit, each providing outputs for an additional 6 DAG
cards.
