# morse\_sync(1)

Tool to synchronize the MORSE simulator

## NAME

morse\_sync - Tool to synchronize the MORSE simulator

## SYNOPSIS

**morse\_sync** \[-h\] \[-d\] \[-H host\] \[-P port\] \[-t timeout\]  -p \<period\>

## DESCRIPTION

**morse\_sync** is a tool which sends a periodic signal to the Morse simulator, allowing to synchronize it to an external clock. It relies on the socket synchronisation *protocol* of Morse.

Moreover, **morse\_sync** reads command on its input. It accepts the following commands:

- **quit**

  End the **morse\_sync** tool

- **set\_period \<period\>**

  Change the period of message sent

## OPTIONS

- **-d, --debug**

  Enable debug information

- **-H, --host \<host\>**

  Configure the host where Morse is running

- **-P, --port \<port\>**

  Configure the port of the synchronisation socket of Morse

- **-p, --period \<period\>**

  Configure the period (in sec) to which the signal is sent to Morse

- **-h, --help**

  Displays information regarding the program use.

- **-t, --timeout \<timeout\>**

  Configure time (in sec) during **morse\_sync** tries to connect to the Morse synchronisation socket. It is particularly useful to handle delay in the Morse initialisation. The default value is 10 sec.
