Source note: NTP and GPS timing details (Raspberry Shake manual excerpt)¶

Raw path: raw/processed/2026/ntp-and-gps-timing-details.md

Summary

Operational documentation on how Raspberry Shake devices use NTP to keep UTC timestamps, expected millisecond-level accuracy regimes by model sample rate, behavior when offline at boot, automatic reboot when connectivity returns, and cautions against manual timezone skew—useful concrete example of NTP as seismic timestamp authority.
