[time-nuts] Jupiter-T GPS Rx Performance

2006-07-21 Thread Brian O'Connor
What is the accuracy variation of the 10 kHz and 1 PPS outputs of the Jupiter-T GPS receiver between 3-D Navigation, 2-D Navigation and 0-D Position Hold modes, after a couple of hours of reception? Is it less than an order of magnitude? By default I understand the Jupiter to automatically sele

Hi David: Yes, I like it. Should Increment and Decrement work on the whole counter? for example when changing minutes you can only increment or decrement the minutes digit and the 10 minute digit follows? Thanks & Have Fun, Brooke David Forbes wrote: >At 6:29 PM -0700 7/21/06, Brooke Clark

Magnus, Congratulations. You have moved closer to the goal that motivates us all, knowing the exact time to 10E-6 times less than human wetware is capable of comprehending, or is that 10E-12. It is remarkable that we are able to measure time to far more precision than we can measure physical thin

Hi: I've been working on making a LCD based clock where the PIC microcontroller uses a precision frequency source as it's heartbeat. Today I got the LCD navigation and time-date setting to work, but don't like it. The current version stops the clock and then uses the cursor and blink hardwar

Fellow time-nuts, This evening I was presented with a dilemma, either to check if my repaired Cs beam would lockup or go out dancing (and chasing chicks). Being told about the dancing a bit late, being inproperly dressed, unshaved and all, I felt the time nut in me was having a strong case, so it

the 1 sec pulse can be used on a counter for a gating the 10mhz on the counter to set it very close as one example. ___ time-nuts mailing list time-nuts@febo.com https://www.febo.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/time-nuts

It's often useful to run a local NTP server from 1 PPS, rather than relying on other machines on the net to give you the time. cheers, glenn ___ time-nuts mailing list time-nuts@febo.com https://www.febo.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/time-nuts
