ABSTRACT:
In a rotation synchronous control system comprising a host controller and a plurality of units connected to the host controller, each of the plurality of units having a rotation device, the system having a spindle sync function for the rotation devices to maintain a spindle sync between them, each of the units is provided with a spindle sync/reference signal source and a phase adjuster. The controller monitors the spindle sync between the units and issues a phase correction instruction to each of the units. Receiving the instruction, the phase adjuster in each unit adjusts the phase of the sync signal and uses the sync signal thus corrected to provide a spindle sync control.
