PPS Output ("SYNC OUT")

A raw unfiltered PPS output is available from the stand-alone BNC connector, labelled "SYNC OUT", on
the rear panel of the IEEE 1588 card.
The PPS Output from the IEEE 1588 card while configured as a PTP master:
• 50% duty-cycle, +/-10% typical
• Please consult the datasheet online for additional specifications.

Behavior

The IEEE 1588 card can function as:
• PTP Grandmaster
- Best Master
- Preferred Master
• PTP Slave
- Primary Reference
- Secondary Reference
- Standby

User Interface

All of the IEEE 1588 card's functions can be managed using the Web Interface (page 31), Command
Line Interface (page 29), or Keypad/Display Interface (page 25).
The following 1588-related functions are available from the command and keypad/display interfaces:
• F130 - Precision Time Protocol Status (page 116)
• F131 - Precision Time Protocol Network Config (page 119)
