Components
To synchronize the time of your plant, it is necessary to configure all network nodes for time
synchronization. To do this configure the following components depending on configuration:
● Time receivers
If synchronizing the time using an external time source, you must configure the time
recipient for a central plant clock.
● Operator station
Configure the OS server(s) and the OS clients.
● Communication modules
Configure the CPs for time synchronization.
● Automation system
Configure the CPU and the communications processors of the automation system (CP
443-1, CP 443-5 Extended).
● Additional plant components
The following components should be included in the time synchronization as needed:
– SIMATIC BATCH
– SIMATIC Route Control
– SIMATIC PCS 7 BOX
– SIMATIC IT
– Engineering station
