Clock (time) synchronisation

Here you can unpack the complete PLC sources: TcPlcLibIEC870_5_101Slave_TutorialSample.zip

The way in which the system time of the substation is to be synchronised can be configured via the system parameters.

• During initialisation the system time of the substation can be synchronised with the system time of the local TwinCAT PC;
• When a time synchronisation command is received from the central station, the system time of the substation can also be synchronised;
• The system time of the local TwinCAT PC can also be synchronised when a time synchronisation command is received.
