2. Check the synchronization settings (software issue):
Go to DTRACK3

In case of external synchronization, please make sure that the synchronization
signal is being sent by the external source.
Synchronization failed in cascaded systems
Cascading means that two or more stand-alone tracking systems are combined to one
large system in order to have only one consolidated data output. Consequently the system
is divided into one master and up to eight slave controllers. The task of the master is to
gather all single data outputs from all slaves and to merge them into one single data
output. The DTRACK3
cameras, output, tracking, etc.) the entire tracking system.
1. Check the cabling (hardware issue):
Please make sure that the coaxial cables are not damaged.
Take care of using the correct ports:
– EXT.In: input of the external synchronization (slaves)
– OUT1: output for synchronization of slave controllers (Do not use OUT2 or
OUT3 !)
Double-check if no extensions between slave controller and terminating resistor
have been made.
Double-check if the terminating resistor is missing at the end of the signal line.
