- Install the compatible NI-Sync software to your host computer.
- Using NI-MAX, install the "NI-TimeSync Time Reference for NI-Sync devices" on the PXI controller
- Using NI-MAX, get the device name for the timing module.
- Using your preferred FTP client, connect to the Phar Lap device and open ‘/ni-rt/system/ni-timesync/ni-timesync-nisync.ini’
- Set the 'source.nisync.deviceName=<device_name_from_step_3>', save and restart the remote system.
NI PXI-6683 is capable of synchronizing with various sources, such as GPS, IRIG-B, PPS, and PTP. Check the device user manual for the details related to other requirements and configurations.
