These events are generated on

follower units in response to roSyncManager.Synchronize() calls from the

leader unit. The roSyncManager on each

follower unit will handle message duplicates, so the script will receive the sync message only once during normal operations.

If the

follower unit is already booted up, then the event will arrive from the first network event generated by roSyncManager.Synchronzie(). On the other hand, if the

follower unit is booted up while the

leader is in the middle of playing a video file or displaying an image file, then one of the message resends (generated at one second intervals by the

leader unit) will trigger the event. The script passes on the data from the event to the PlayFile() command of the video player or the DisplayFile() command of the image player, which will then determine how far forward in the file it needs to seek.
