To get to "auto calibrate" hit a & and then it's the "A" option (Autotune
rather than auto calibrate).

Simple answer - they self calibrate to < 1x10^-13 at a one day time period.
Essentially zero long term drift.

Hi
A few other things to try / consider:
1) Hit the "auto calibrate" function in LH to calibrate the slope of the
OCXO, it will also load some damping and time constant stuff that you may
want to overwrite. I don't know if this is a "beta only" feature or not.
2) Make sure that the TBolt isn't g

The answer is, for best performance you need to modify the factory setting.

I'm new to the list and to the themes at all. I'm running a V3 Thunderbolt

1 in 400 have a problem, so assuming that he had at least one other complaint

Re PIC programming -- if the volume is sufficient, Digi-Key will program
PICs. The set-up fee is enough that you probably want to do at least
50-100 units to amortize the cost, but it's not too bad. That's how we
handled the PIC for the TADD-2.

Hi Didier, the Trimble is a Resolution T (3.3v)user manual at the URL
quoted by Stanley (Thanks again Stanley)
The Synergy is Motorola UT+ Oncore (5v) and I am sure the manual for those
is around somewhere but not had time to chase that yet. Please feel free to
add these to your gallery...
Further to my messages regarding this problem, I contacted Bob (aka
fluke.l) who replied almost immediately, saying that this has happened
to around 1 in 400 iCruse units and he is working on a fix. Sort of a
relief that there really is a problem and not some strange combination
of events.
Stanley, Thank you very much for the rapid response I will browse those URLs
and see if I can id the pcbs. Didier has advised he has a gallery so we
should make good progress.

Hi Brooke,
I know what you are thinking! Sadly the supply is 12.1v so there's
plenty of regulator headroom, very interesting page though. I'm
beginning to think that Didier's suggestion of corrupted firmware in the
iCruse is the most probable explanation.
Best wishes,
David
