Configuration of time synchronization with central time master in a work group

Configuration
The following figure is a schematic representation of how time synchronization of a work group
with central time master should ideally be configured.
Time master
Central plant clock (SICLOCK TC 400, SICLOCK TM or SICLOCK TS) on the plant bus
Central plant clock
The central plant clock is either synchronized with an external signal (e.g. GPS), or operates
with the internal realtime clock.
