Time synchronization between multiple
PTC901 meters can be accomplished through a
hardware interface on the Real-Time Clock option
card. This RS485 type interface allows connection
of up to 32 PTC901 meters in a two-wire
multidrop network, at distances up to 4000 ft.
In a synchronization network, one PTC901
meter is programmed as the Host, while all other
meters are programmed as Slaves. Once every
hour, the Host meter outputs a time
synchronization pulse onto the network. Upon
receiving the synchronization pulse, each Slave
meter automatically adjusts the minutes and
seconds of its RTC Time setting to synchronize
with the Host.
