Abstract: Systems and methods for event detection and logging in access control points are described. One described method includes detecting an event; transmitting a timing correction request over a communications link; receiving a first timing signal having a first send time; and transmitting a second timing signal. The timing signal has a second send time, a first receive time associated with the first send time, and the first send time. The method further includes receiving a timing correction based at least in part on a reference time and a latency of the communications link; determining a corrected timestamp using the timing correction; and recording the event and the corrected timestamp.
