Time synchronization
- The external NTP server provides the time clock for the CPUs and CRAs. Configure the NTP server’s IP address and polling period for each NTP client. In the M580 architecture, the M580 CPU can act as an NTP server to synchronize its CRA module’s time clock.
- The IRIG-B 004/5/6/7 or DCF77 signals generated by the GPS receiver are used to synchronize the ERT module’s time clock.
