3.36 SI: IRIG Monitoring and Changeover Unit
This module can frame accurate and in real-time compare and contrast two incoming IRIG
time code signals for indescribable differences. In the event of a failure, “SI” automatically
switches to the other faultless source. The SI module is a must for all time code systems where
failure proof IRIG is a requirement. This includes real-time applications. Additionally, it
monitors IRIG and reference errors, IRIG/ IRIG and IRIG /reference differences, and it makes
status information about all sources available.
