GEN series SYNCHRONIZATION METHODS
GEN series SYNCHRONIZATION METHODS

If GEN series recorded data needs to be correlated to other (GEN series) systems that
are not directly synchronized to the same time source, a more accurate absolute time
of day is required to enable data correlation at a later point in time.
Whenever a GEN series recording is made using any of the available synchronization meth-
ods, the need for absolute time of day synchronization is not required to get a correct signal
phase match.
A typical use of absolute time of day synchronization would be two GEN series sys-
tems, each at different locations that cannot be connected by wires. Using GPS abso-
lute time synchronization would allow recorded data to be compared, even if these two
systems were not connected.
