When you say PPS, do you mean "pulse per second" or are you trying to use the PPS input as a generic triggering system? If the second case, you can do this, but my advice will be different.

Once you set the time registers, thats it, your are done. You know what time the next pps will occur because it is one second plus the time you set. -Josh _______________________________________________ Discuss-gnuradio mailing list Discuss-gnuradio@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/discuss-gnuradio
