Priority 1
Priority 2
Displays the relative priority of the Grandmaster clock to other clocks in the system. The value is between 0…255. The highest priority is
0.
Local Clock
Displays properties for the local clock.
Sync Status
Displays whether the local clock is synchronized or asynchronized with the Grandmaster clock.
Identity
Displays the unique identifier for the local clock. The format depends on the network protocol.
• The Ethernet protocol encodes the MAC address into the identifier.
• The DeviceNet and ControlNet protocols encode the Vendor ID and serial number into the identifier.
Class
Displays a measure of the quality of the local clock. Values are defined from 0…255 with 0 as the best clock.
Accuracy
Indicates the expected absolute accuracy of the local clock relative to CIP Sync time synchronization epoch (31 December, 1969
23:59:51.99918 UTC). The accuracy is specified as a graduated scale starting at 25 ns and ending at greater than 10 seconds or unknown.
For example, a GPS time source has an accuracy of approximately 250 ns. A hand-set clock typically has an accuracy less than 10 seconds.
The lower the accuracy value, the better the clock.
Variance
Displays the measure of inherent stability properties of the local clock. The value is represented in offset scaled log units. The lower the
variance, the better the clock.
