The network node includes a local crystal oscillator for providing a time reference derived from the clock signal produced by the local crystal oscillator, a reset stage for resetting the network node in response to a bus reset pulse received through the network and a control means for issuing a bus reset pulse of a predetermined length substantially greater than a clock period of the clock signal of the local crystal oscillator. Further the network node includes a bus reset detector for determining a length of the received bus reset pulse based on the local time reference. The bus reset detector in the network node is also adapted to adjust the local time reference based on the determined length of the received bus reset pulse. |
