8.2.1.3. Masterclock
Masterclock is a DEWESoft® term that refers to the main clock that is used to synchronise data and
actions inside the DEWESoft® software.
Clockmaster is another DEWESoft® term that refers to the hardware device that provides the
masterclock to DEWESoft®.
There are several possible source for the masterclock:
● whenever you have activated an analog device (e.g. SIRIUS®, DEWE-43) in DEWESoft® it will be
used as clockmaster
● when you have no hardware devices activated at all, then the computer's clock will be used
Masterclock
In the example in image above “Masterclock” we have used one channel called DEWE-43_Voltage ❶
(from a DEWE-43 of course), one mathematical channel called Math DEWE43-half ❷ (which just divides
the value of the DEWE-43_Voltage channel by 2) and one channel of a DS-NET called V1 ❸ .
Since DEWE-43 is an analog device (just like SIRIUS®), it will be the clockmaster. The mathematical
channel will be synchronised with the masterclock: thus the points and are perfectly aligned.
