synchronize two measurement boards through a wireless connection

n.

to what resolution? to what goal? keeping result timing between the two precise? Or keeping the time result accurate? Are you looking for something similar to NTP (the Network Time Protocol)? Ed (to give you much more advice than that, I would have to charge you.)

Hello again

The goal is to synchronize two or more measurement boards that shall start to sample X samples when receiving the "GO" signal.

The GO signal should be transmitted by the master system and all boards should be listening for it simultaneously.

All the boards should start sampling the first sample within 1mS.

The starting points of the first samples are important.

They might start together but will they continue to keep the same timing over a number of measurements.

You should probably look at protocols like NTP, TTP, IEEE1588, PXI and LXI.

These links should prove useful to you. If you can get near to a TCP/IP arrangement then one of these should help a great deal.
