System-Wide Timers

Parameter

Network Re-sync Timer

Description

If one clock source fails, the system will switch to another clock
source. The re-sync timer determines how often the system
attempts to return to the original clock source.

For example, if the first clock source (1st sync) fails, the system
switches to the second source. However, the system will try to
return to the first source based on the re-sync timer.

For instance, if the system changes to the second source at 12:00
p.m. and the re-sync timer is set for 24 hours, the DBS will attempt
to return to the first clock source at 12:00 p.m. every day. If the re-
sync timer is set for 1 hour, the DBS will attempt to return to the
first clock source every hour.

If the second source fails and the first source continues to be out-
of-service, the system switches to the third source. Again, the re-
sync timer determines how often the system will attempt to return
to the first source.

Note:

When the system attempts to go back to the first clock

source, existing calls will be disconnected.
