Application and Setting Notes
Time Synchronization
In order to ensure the time accuracy of the PMU, you must select IRIG-B as protocol for the GPS clock, see the
following figure. With other settings, the PMU function function group indicates that it is not time synchron-
ized.

Setting Time Synchronization
To detect a lack of synchronization quickly, also set the waiting time for the failure indication of the loss of
time synchronization to the smallest possible value, thus to 1 s.
Parameter: Mode
•
Default setting (_:10621:1) Mode = on
Activate and deactivate the PMU or switch to Test mode via the parameter Mode. The possible setting values

•
Default setting (_:10621:102) Reporting rate = 10 frames/s
With the parameter Reporting rate, you specify the number of telegrams that are compiled and sent to
the PDC per second.
