Table 5.7-2 Settings for the IRIG-B Time synchronization
Selection of IEEE C37.118/IRIG-B000
Operation in the local time
(iii) Synchronization using BI signal
When accurate1Hz square-wave can be supplied as a reference clock, the clock function can
make the time synchronization. The 1Hz square-wave is transferred using a binary input
circuit (BI).
Example of time synchronization via BI circuit
Figure 5.7-7 exemplifies that the 1Hz square-wave is provided via the BI1 circuit†.
