6.2 Time Synchronization Configurations
Description The DUCK is very flexible, and can be used in several ways, with or
without an external time reference source.
The use includes a single card with no reference, two cards with no
reference, and a card with reference.
In this section
This section covers the following topics of information.
•
Single Card no Reference Time Synchronization
•
Two Cards no Reference Time Synchronization
•
Card with Reference Time Synchronization
6.2.1 Single Card no Reference Time Synchronization
Description When a single card is used with no external reference, the card can be
synchronized to the host PC’s clock.
The clock in most PC’s is not very accurate by itself, but the DUCK drifts
smoothly at the same rate as the PC clock.
If a PC is running NTP to synchronize its own clock, then the DUCK
clock is less smooth because the PC clock is adjusted in small jumps.
However, overall the DUCK clock does not drift away from UTC.
The synchronization achieved in this case is not as accurate as when using
an external reference source such as GPS.
The DUCK clock is synchronized to a PC clock by setting input
synchronization selector to overflow:
dag@endace:~$ dagclock –d dag0 none overin
muxin overin
muxout none
