     Web Interface TIMING Tab Select a topic from below to learn more about the TIMING features of the Web Interface: TIMING- TimeZone Local Time Zone This setting affects: The time shown on the SyncServer front panel display when the user presses the TIME button.
  • Page 43 NOTE 3: When providing a backup reference source for the GPS or IRIG Input references, Microsemi recommends using the 10 MHz Input. An unsynchronized 1 PPS Input may cause the NTP daemon to disqualify the HW Clock and rely on a lower-stratum NTP reference instead, if one is available.

  • Page 44: Steering With A Frequency Reference

     Web Interface NOTE 4: When a timing source or user sets the Hardware Clock time, the SyncServer syn- chronizes its Software Clock (a.k.a, the "ntpd" or "NTP daemon") and its battery-backed Real Time Clock (RTC) to the new time. The SyncServer also RESTARTS the NTP dae- mon after any clock change.

  • Page 45: Frequency Reference - Power-Down / Reboot

     TIMING Tab Frequency sources qualified by a hardware TOD source (GPS, IRIG-B) will be stratum-1, and will continue to serve stratum-1 time even after the original timing reference is dis- connected. Frequency sources qualified by an NTP Peer will reflect the same stratum number and Refer- ence Id / IP Address as the source that qualified them, and will continue to serve time (at that same stratum) if the Peer is lost.
  • Page 46  Web Interface The SyncServer uses holdover to continue operating as a stratum 1 NTP server/peer for a period of time if the Input References become unavailable. For example: A SyncServer in a downtown office building gets time from GPS. Surrounding skyscrapers occasionally block signals from the GPS satellites as they move across the sky, causing "gaps"...

  • Page 47: Timing- Sysplex

     TIMING Tab The NTP daemon is synchronized to the Hardware Clock "reference clock" and reports Stratum 1 to the network. The Hardware Clock enters holdover when the Input Reference becomes unavailable and no other Input References are available. While in holdover: The Hardware Clock uses the internal oscillator to keep time (flywheeling).
  • Page 48  Web Interface Parity: (Odd, None, Even) The parity setting of the Sysplex Out port (should match that of the receiving device). Flywheel Quality Character: The user can set the Flywheel Quality Character to: "  " (space) "X" "F" (for Flywheel Quality Character) About Sysplex and the Hardware Clock To achieve the highest levels of precision and accuracy, the Sysplex Timer port gets its time directly from the Hardware Clock.
  • Page 49  TIMING Tab 5. If an Input Reference becomes available again, the Hardware Clock synchronizes with it and the time quality character becomes "  " (time valid) again. Usually there is a short delay between the Hardware Clock changing state and the time qual- ity character changing.

  • Page 103  Installation Guide Window Antenna Placement For window mounted antenna installations, use the window with the best view of the sky. For windows with equivalent views, orientations that face the equator are preferred. Generally more satellites will be in view toward the equator than away from it. East or west facing win- dows will also work.

  • Page 104: Verifying The Gps Installation

     Tasks 1. On the TIMING - Holdover page, set the Time Error Limit (milliseconds) to the highest acceptable value for absolute timing error (to UTC). Microsemi recommends a value greater than or equal to 4 milliseconds. 2. On the STATUS - GPS page, if the GPS receiver has a valid position (latitude, longitude, alti- tude), the user can skip to step 3.
