1. A synchronous measurement system comprising:
- a main controller;
a plurality of sub-controllers connected to the main controller; and
a respective plurality of sensor units connected to each of the plurality of sub-controllers, wherein the plurality of sub-controllers include;
a sub-controller master; and
a sub-controller slave connected to the sub-controller master, the main controller transmits a start command to the sub-controller master and the sub-controller slave,the sub-controller master includesa first communication section that receives the start command from the main controller,a first trigger transmitter that generates a trigger signal in response to receiving the start command, transmits the trigger signal to the sub-controller slave, anda first command generating section that generates a first synchronization command upon generating the trigger signal,wherein the plurality of sensor units connected to the sub-controller master is configured to sample data in accordance with the first synchronization command, andthe sub-controller slave includesa second communication section that receives the start command from the main controller,a second command decoder that decodes the start command, wherein the gab-controller slave is set in a standby state based on the start command prior to receiving, the trigger signal from the sub-controller master, anda second command generating section that receives the trigger signal from the sub-controller master and generates a second synchronization command in response to the trigger signal, wherein the plurality of sensor units connected to the sub-controller master is configured to sample data in accordance with the second synchronization command.

Abstract
A synchronous measurement system includes a main controller, a plurality of sub-controllers connected to the main controller, and a plurality of sensor units connected to the sub-controller. The sub-controllers include a sub-controller master and a sub-controller slave connected to the sub-controller master. The main controller transmits a start command to the sub-controller master. The sub-controller master generates a trigger signal according to reception of the start command and transmits the trigger signal to the sub-controller slave. Each of the plurality of sub-controllers transmits a synchronization command to the plurality of sensor units on the basis of the trigger signal.
