Precisely timed execution of a measurement or control action and synchronization of several such actions

摘要

The invention relates to a method for a particularly precise execution of a measurement or control action and to a corresponding controller ( 9 ). A temporally periodic synchronization signal (S, S' ) generated by a receiver ( 9 ) based on a timing reference signal (Z) is divided by a switching frequency (F) generated by a timing generator ( 14 ) into a plurality of switching intervals (I_n). A switching command (C_n), which triggers a corresponding switching process of the action, is associated with each switching interval (I_n). Several measurement and control actions can be accurately synchronized by performing each action with the aforedescribed method using a common timing reference signal (Z).
