Waits for the Ethernet interface to synchronize time on the network.

datatype_icon

session in

The session to apply the wait.

datatype_icon

timeout

An input that specifies the maximum amount of time in seconds to wait.

datatype_icon

error in

Error conditions that occur before this node runs.

The node responds to this input according to standard error behavior.

Standard Error Behavior

Many nodes provide an error in input and an error out output so that the node can respond to and communicate errors that occur while code is running. The value of error in specifies whether an error occurred before the node runs. Most nodes respond to values of error in in a standard, predictable way.

error in does not contain an error error in contains an error
If no error occurred before the node runs, the node begins execution normally.

If no error occurs while the node runs, it returns no error. If an error does occur while the node runs, it returns that error information as error out.

If an error occurred before the node runs, the node does not execute. Instead, it returns the error in value as error out.

Default: No error

datatype_icon

session out

An output that is the same as session in, provided for use with subsequent nodes.

datatype_icon

error out

Error information.

The node produces this output according to standard error behavior.

Description

Waits for the clock of the Ethernet interface to successfully synchronize to other clocks in the network. This wait returns when the time synchronization protocol's Synced property becomes true.

Note  

Time synchronization occurs independently from start of the interface. For example, you can read and write Ethernet frames when time synchronization protocol is not enabled, or when the time sync protocol is not synced.

The timeout parameter provides the maximum number of seconds to wait. The default value is 10 seconds.

Where This Node Can Run:

Desktop OS: Windows

FPGA: Supported

Web Server: Not supported in VIs that run in a web application
