  • Synchronization and automatic resynchronization of multiple incremental recorders
    Patent number: 5257144
    Abstract: A system capable of synchronizing and automatically resynchronizing multiple DCRSi units includes a monitor for monitoring respective channels output by each unit for frame sync words which have been simultaneously inserted into each unit during recording. If the frame sync words are not present simultaneously, the sequence and magnitude of the offset is determined and synchronization of the data output is adjusted by adding additional reads to the channels that slip behind.
