[time-nuts] Success replacing Oncore VP with Synergy SR-6Tf ?

2020-07-05 Thread Steve Jones via time-nuts
Greetings, I've found various posts in the list archive since about 2012 suggesting that one could drop a Synergy SSR-6Tf in to replace an Oncore VP board, or about planning to do so (and others about replacing an M12* with an SSR-6Tr[u]). But if anybody has simply posted, "I dropped in an

Hi Jim; These are encapsulated blocks two 48>5 and one 48>24 - I know the 24 is made by Victor. Pretty easy to replace. I up-dated my 2110 with a high contrast LED backlite display. Easy to do when you have it apart. Cheers; Tom Knox SR Test and Measurement Engineer Ascent Concepts and

Time Nuts- I have an Austron 2110 with a severely toasted power controller board. Probably not repairable. I plan to build a substitute with a more modern design. Does anyway have schematics? I noticed correspondence between Magnus Danielson and Harald Hauglin some years ago. Did the manula

Bill, A 5071A will never go solid-green "continuous operation" on its own. That solid-green state is set manually from the blinking-green state, by design. This prevents you from seeing green, having a short power failure overnight, and then you come back in the morning and see green and

Hi My recollection is that if power is cycled, it drops out of “continuous operation mode”. There *might* even be BBC footage documenting this … :) Simply put, all of these devices ( 5071 and the other HP atomic standards I have seen) *only* go into continuous operation when you push a button.

If the power is cycled on one of these will it always go into attention mode yellow until cleared? Or will it go green continuous operation all in it's own? If one of these has been on the shelf a while is it common for one even with a good tube to report attention yellow for a while until tube

Hi Lester, Good to hear your progress. So, I gather that you managed to successfully repair it, and it was a capacitor issue that I also had experienced. Which caps did fail for you? I think I recall a 50 uF bipolar cap. Cheers, Magnus On 2020-07-05 17:51, Lester Veenstra via time-nuts wrote:

Andrew, outlier rejection in NTPD is not the most stable thing in the world. You have two local refclocks that are consistently 200ms off from the "rest of the world" and this is 10 times larger than the round trip delay to the rest of the world. But the local stratum 0 refclock poll interval is
