⑦ Optional: RS 485 repeater
7.5 Time synchronization on the ET 200PA SMART I/O bus
Properties
The IM 650 interface module supports time synchronization on the I/O bus.
● The IM 650 sends the current time to the I/O bus after its time synchronization has been
enabled during parameter assignment.
● The synchronization on the I/O bus takes place in the synchronization interval that is set on
the PROFIBUS DP.
● The accuracy deteriorates negligibly compared to the time received on the PROFIBUS DP.
The accuracy of 10 ms is always guaranteed.
