Applications . TimeSpy is invaluable where time of day information is distributed from a central master clock to sub-master clocks or user systems over large distances via serial data links or packet networks. Substantial delays can occur due to high levels of network traffic or even due to the long distance between the master clock and the user. Some commercially available software algorithms can reduce these errors but, unless the errors are accurately and independently measured at the point of use, the user cannot be certain of the accuracy of his time source in this type of application....
