SPORTIDENT BSF8 SI-Master

SPORTIDENT BSF9 CONTROL STATION

SPORTident SI-Master Station 8 is an extended SPORTident Control Station. It works and can be configured as any other SPORTident station.

• In addition, two new service modes are implemented: TimeMaster and ExtendedMaster

  • TimeMaster: In operating mode “TimeMaster” the station transmits its clock time to any other SPORTident-Station inductive coupled to the SI-Master. So a set of SPORTident-Stations can be synchronized very quickly.

  • ExtendedMaster: In “ExtendedMaster” mode the SI-Master transmits its clock time to any other SPORTident- Station. Additionally, the SI-Master clears the backup memory of the slaved station and transmits its own active time to any other unit.

• The different service modes are activated by using the Service/OFF-Card. The card has to be punched several times. There is the following order:

1. Service: SERVMO

2. TimeMaster: TIMEMA

3. ExtendedMaster: EXTMA

4. Off

• Each action by an ordinary SI-Card immediately activates station’s base mode.
• For the inductive coupling process, a coupling stick should be used. When synchronizing the real-time clock the slaved station will be switched automatically into service mode. An acoustic/optical feedback signal indicates the completion of the synchronization process. Then the slaved station switched back automatically in operating mode Nevertheless this process starts once more when the station keeps on the time master.
• Afterward, it is very important to check the real-time clock in all synchronized stations by punching with an SI-Card and reading out the data records. Besides this punch guarantees that all stations will be switched into active mode.
• The station’s real time clock system is calibrated and temperature compensated (starting with firmware V5.53). This offers higher accuracy also at very high and very low temperatures. The internal time resolution is 1/256 s, approximately 4 ms.
