Synchronization

To synchronize from two to nine 6000 Series devices, link

them together with synchronization cables as indicated in the

example figure. Note that the first device (relative to the

circuit) will be the Master. The last device connected will be

the Terminating Slave. Thus the synchronized devices must

proceed sequentially from the Master to Terminating Slave, as

indicated in the figures. Note that channel-to-channel phase

relationships in a multi-device configuration are not

necessarily fixed. See notes below.

After physically linking the devices via the sync cables, they must still be configured as a “Synchronized Device

Group” in the Encore software. To do this, use the Synchronize Devices page of Encore‟s Hardware Setup tab.

Each Synchronized Group consists of one Master Device

and at least one Slave Device. By default, the first 6000

Series device added to the Synchronization Group will be

the Master and the last device added to the group will be the

Terminating Slave.

Encore‟s Synchronized Device Group Configuration

panel includes a pull-down list which allows you to select

the device that you want to have function as Master and the

one you want to function as Terminating Slave, should this

be different than the default settings.

Encore will display a Synchronization Error icon if it

detects that a necessary synch cable is missing or not

properly connected.

Up to nine units can be synchronized. The total combined length of the SYNC cables is not

to exceed 2.438m (8 ft).

Unplug sync cables from devices that are not intended to be part of a “Synchronized Device

Group.” Leaving a sync cable connected to an independent device can lead to errors.

Leaving an un-terminated sync cable on a synchronized device can lead to errors.

The sampled data phase relationship among channels between multiple devices is

dependent on the Channel Sync Skew specification for each device. When utilizing

different models in a multi-device system, any differences in the ADC filter delay

(“Input Delay”) should be added.

Reference Note: For detailed information refer to the Encore software‟s Comprehensive Help.

You can access the Help from within Encore. After doing so, navigate to the synchronization

related topic as follows from the Help‟s Contents panel:

Configuring Hardware>>Hardware Setup>>Synchronizing Devices.
