Hi, I have just acquired a Datum ExacTime 6000 GPS Time Code And Frequency Generator. So far, I am impressed how fast this unit has stabilized into the low 10e-11 accuracy range... I verify this against the CHU station carrier (located 15 Km away) . The version of ExacTime 6000 I have is equipped with an OCXO mounted on the motherboard. The former owner told me that the unit had been upgraded to fix an IRIG B format issue. I cannot find the info on that upgrade.
So I have the following questions: - What is the general impression on the performance of this ExacTime 6000 box? - The SELECT MODE menu shows possible selections as AUTO, 1SV4, 2SV4, 3SV4, FW or something close to that (I go by memory)... but the manual provided by Symmetricom suggests selections as Auto, STATIONARY, DYNAMIC, FW... I would like to set it to stationary. What selection should I make? - The latest manual provided by Symmetricom is version 8500-0105. Is there a newer manual available? - I saw a claim that there is a Windows software to manage the device. Where can I get it? - I tried to output the 1PPS signal throught he rear BNCs. I can set all rates from 10MHz down to 0.1Hz, but I don't see anything triggering on the scope when I set it to 1PPS. Am I missing something here? I hope this is not too much work. I would appreciate any assistance, even partial, with these questions. Thanks in advance, Bert, VE2ZAZ _______________________________________________ time-nuts mailing list -- time-nuts@febo.com To unsubscribe, go to https://www.febo.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/time-nuts and follow the instructions there.
