ABSTRACT:
A system and/or method for synchronizing one or more modules of an industrial controller relative to a common time base. A module may be programmed and/or configured to employ an activation interval for controlling periodic activation for sampling one or more inputs and/or applying data at outputs of the module. The module synchronizes its activation interval based on a coordinated time base signal.
