22.5.6 Local Offset and Global Time
On TTCAN level 2, the local offset of a TTCAN node (not of the time master) is defined
as the difference between the Master_Ref_Mark (also named Global_Ref_Mark) and the
node’s reference mark Ref_Mark. For the time master, the sum of the local time and the
local offset is stored as Global_Sync_Mark when the frame synchronization is reached.
The Global_Sync_Mark (for the time master) and the Global_Ref_Mark (for all other
nodes) are stored in the Global Mark Register GMR. The Local_Offset is stored in the
local offset register LOR.
When a TTCAN node receives a reference message, the global mark register is updated
by the received value. The value that has been received in the previous reference
message is automatically transferred from the global mark register to the last global mark
register. The difference between these two values represents the time elapsed between
the last two reference messages from the time master’s point of view.
