You would have to test I guess but the potential is there for an issue. It can be circumvented by configuring a 1PPS offset if the receiver allows it , or configuring a reasonable cable delay in the receiver so that the pulses are not simultaneous . The latter possibility exists for the Venus 8 receiver , but I cannot find a command to force a 1PPS offset. > Thanks, > Laszlo > > > -----Original Message----- > From: time-nuts [mailto:time-nuts-boun...@febo.com] On Behalf Of Paul > Sent: Wednesday, December 10, 2014 18:43 > To: Discussion of precise time and frequency measurement > Subject: Re: [time-nuts] 10MHz LTE-Lite - PPS accuracy? > > On Wed, Dec 10, 2014 at 12:17 PM, <gign...@gmail.com> wrote: > >> Quite simply - if you either execute ldattach pps /dev/ttyUSBx, or are >> running GPSD (recommended) it will bind the USB appropriately to a >> ppsapi instance. >> > > I can get a /dev/ppsN but ppstest says time-out.
