from 0 as each event occurs.

3.1.6. Flash Card

This card contains the operating system software, application, and user settings for the system.

3.1.7. Display Button

When pressed and released, this button will display the ATS-6511's current IP Address if the
address has been set through DHCP or statically. If the system is set up to use DHCP and it was
unable to obtain an IP Address the system will set the IP Address to 0.0.0.0 and the system will
not display an IP Address on the front panel when this button is pressed.
The second feature of this button is enabled by default. If this button is held down for ~10
seconds it will set the IP Address on the system to 192.168.0.1. This is a temporary setting and it
will not survive a system reboot or power cycle. This feature can be disabled using the
frontpanel_button command and setting the value to 0. Once set the value can be confirmed
using the settings hardware command. Make sure to save the system settings.

Rear Panel

All hardware interfaces and connectors are located on the rear panel of the ATS-6511. The
system can provide eight types of timing signals: 1 PPS, 10 MHz, 5MHz, 1MHz, DC IRIG, AM
IRIG, NASA36 and L-Band BPSK depending on which output modules are installed and the
system configuration settings. All output modules except the L-Band module have four BNC(F)
connectors. The L-Band module has four RF outputs and one 1 PPS output on SMA(F)
connectors (shown in slots 3 and 5 below). These outputs can be used to directly feed other
instruments or feed a distribution system that provides any number of user outputs. The on-time-
point (OTP) of the system is typically at the output of the BNC connectors (Section 2.6) but it can
be adjusted to be any point in an integrated system by accounting for distribution delays and
adjusting the fiber delay value (Section 2.7).
