or a Grandmaster Clock. Transparent Clock (TC) mode
is supported here.
The following setup parameters are available:
S Time delay: End2End (E2E) or Peer2Peer (P2P)
S Transport protocol: IPv4 or IPv6
Modules that do not support this mode, such as MX840A
can be connected via FireWire to the adjacent module
with PTPv2, and included in the synchronization (auto
matic clock distribution).
The converted modules must be restarted. The system
as a whole therefore supports the classic HBM sample
rates only.
Converted modules need to be restarted. After restart,
check the system LEDs at the module front green
means synchronous.
Synchronization via IEEE1394b FireWire
All the modules are synchronized automatically when
they are connected via the IEEE1394b FireWire cable.
This is the recommended method.
No CX27/B module present in the system and no exter
nal synchronization source available:
The module with the highest serial number (UUID) takes
over the master function.
CX27/B module present in the system and no external
synchronization source available:
If a CX27/B module is connected, it automatically
becomes the synchronization master. When starting the
system, the system time is set once to the actual time.
If QuantumX modules alone are being used, internal syn
chronization is sufficient. However, if synchronous mea
