Checking the time measurement by means of the data interface
The time measurement accurate to a millisecond can be read out from the SAM via the available 20 mA interface
using the SML protocol.
Checking the time measurement in the manufacturing process
In each SAM, a connection pin is available which signals the start and stop time by means of a signal change
(flank-controlled). With this signal in combination with the digital time measurement value (via the 20 mA
interface), all SAMs are checked in the manufacturing process for the functionality and accuracy of the internal
RTC.
