    Abstract: According to the invention, a time emitter of a subscriber (1) provided as a reference in a network regularly and/or randomly transmits reference time signals (TR1). A subscriber (2) approximately adjusts the local time measurement thereof in relation to the time measurement of the reference subscriber (1) only if the difference between the reference time (TR) and local time (TL) is less than a predetermined or predeterminable threshold value (e), at the moment when the reference time signal is received and/or a signal path is kept clear between the subscriber (2) and the reference subscriber (1) or the network for instantaneous data transmission.
