3.1.2 Software Sync
Synchronization
by software
The software time synchronization is driver-based and available for all applications
without any restrictions. The time stamp deviations from different Vector network
interfaces are calculated and synchronized to the common PC clock. For this purpose
no further hardware setup is required.
Figure 42: Time stamps of devices are synchronized to the PC clock (accuracy in range of 100 µs).
The setting of the software time synchronization can be changed in the Vector
Hardware Config tool in General information | Settings | Software time
synchronization.
Figure 43: Switching on the software synchronization.
> YES
The software time synchronization is active.
> NO
The software time synchronization is not active.
Use this setting only if the Vector network interfaces are being synchronized over
the sync line or if only a single device is used.
