1.4.8 TIME SYNCHRONIZATION
The DGP system includes a real time clock that can run freely or be synchronized from an external signal. Two
different external time-sync signals are possible. If the DGP is connected to the host computer of a G-NET sub-
station information and control system, then the DGP receives a time-sync pulse via pin 25 of port PL-1. If the
DGP is not connected to a G-NET host computer, then a demodulated IRIG-B signal connected to optional port
PL-3 may be used to synchronize the clock. In both cases, the clock in a given DGP is synchronized to within
±1 millisecond of any other digital relay clock, provided the two relays are wired to the same synchronizing sig-
nal.
