Hi, we are not really sure about the meaning of the parameter currentUtcOffsetValid delivered by pmc GET TIME_PROPERTIES_DATA_SET.
For my understanding if currentUtcOffsetValid is 0, the ptp clock uses an utc offset currentUtcOffset but is not sure whether this is the current value issued by the IERS (International Earth Rotation and Reference Systems Service). If the clock knows the current leap seconds it gives currentUtcOffsetValid = 1. And could you please acknowledge another conclusion I made in may tests with ptp: No matter whether currentUtcOffsetValid is set or not, currentUtcOffset is used in both cases to calculate utc from tai. thank you very much, Matthias Hottinger Baldwin Messtechnik GmbH, Im Tiefen See 45, 64293 Darmstadt, Germany | www.hbm.com Registered as GmbH (German limited liability corporation) in the commercial register at the local court of Darmstadt, HRB 1147 Company domiciled in Darmstadt | Managing Director: Andreas Huellhorst | Chairman of the board: Eoghan O�Lionaird Als Gesellschaft mit beschraenkter Haftung eingetragen im Handelsregister des Amtsgerichts Darmstadt unter HRB 1147 Sitz der Gesellschaft: Darmstadt | Geschaeftsfuehrung: Andreas Huellhorst | Aufsichtsratsvorsitzender: Eoghan O�Lionaird The information in this email is confidential.
