sets the seconds to 30 (and the sub-seconds counter to 0). The hour is disregarded by
the controller check.
Example
If the synch code is sent at (HRS:MINS:SECS) XX:08:30 and Real time clock is
between XX:08:01 and XX:08:59, it will be re-synchronised to XX:08:30.
...where ‘XX’ is any hour.
(N.B. As the real time clock is unlikely to be a whole hour in error, the hour is
ignored.)
If the real-time clock error is greater than + 29 seconds, the synchronisation code is
ignored and synchronisation confirm (‘CC1’) is not returned.
See also 9.3.4(9.3.4(m)).
9.3.3(l) Transmission Confirm (TC)
‘TC’ is an OTU output and not a transmitted control bit. Its presence indicates that
valid transmission is being received from the central computer.
The controller may be programmed so that no control bits are effective unless ‘TC’ is
present.
See also 9.3.7.
9.3.4 Reply Bits
See Figure 21.14.
9.3.4(a) Stage Confirm (G1,G2 etc.)
A single ‘G’ bit is returned when the specified stage is active, i.e. all fixed phases
within the stage are at green (see section 2.3).
If required, the controller can be programmed so that more than one stage returns the
same ‘G’ bit whenever the different stages are active. In this case the ‘G’ bit will not
stay active during any interstages between two stages with the same ‘G’ bit unless the
controller is specifically programmed to do so. (See section 9.3.3).
Two ‘G’ bits returned simultaneously, normally ‘G1/G2’, may be programmed to
indicate any of the following conditions:
(i) Manual mode selected and operative.
(ii) Manual mode selected.
(iii) No lamp power.
(iv) Detector Fault Monitor timed out.
(v) NORMAL mode select button not selected, i.e. MANUAL, FIXED
TIME or V/A.
(vi) An entry in the controller fault log.
