I got an e-mail from the local rep of Symmetricom... and he
acknowledged that Symmetricom ARE working on new f/w for
the 9390-6000. No timeframe or any other information was given at the
time, but I am confident we will have a set of
E-Proms with new f/w pretty soon.
Don't scrap your clock just
Sorry to jump in, but does anyone have any thoughts on whether this
might also be involved in the odd year rollover issue seen on many
TrueTime devices?
This is the issue where the work around for the TrueTime clocks is to

We use the Trimble 9390 where I work.
Around the Y2K period we received new EPROM sets to put into the units.
I checked yesterday and they are displaying the correct day and year.
Let me see if I can find a spare set of EPROMS to download.

These are glued together with an ASIC.
I contacted Trimble and they cannot identify their engine.
I have read the ROMs and am in the process of disassembling the code.
This is slow.
