GPS Synchronization

It is possible to synchronize the TIMY3 with a GPS mouse (GPS-TY). The synchronization can
be effected with all programs and is a up to the 1/10 000 seconds exactly.
•
The GPS mouse (picture: GPS 18LVC) needs no exter-
nal power supply.
•
The RS232 baud rate of the TIMY3 has to be set to 9600
Baud.
•
In the menu <channels> the item <TED-RX> has to be
deactivated.
•
The GPS synchronizes the TIMY3. After this the TIMY3
runs with its own precision quartz and the GPS can be
disconnected. The GPS Mouse can now be used to syn-
chronize further devices.
Instead of the day time setting, the display shows as indicated
on the right. As long as it says "NO SIGNAL", the GPS receiver
is searching for satellites.
When "OK -UTC +UTC NO" is displayed in the bottom line,
the time for your region can be adjusted with keys <F1> and
<F2>. As soon as the correct time is shown, press <OK>.
Attention!
After receipt of a valid GPS signal, the TIMY3 verifies the check-
sum and measures the duration of the sync signal. If the sync signal is erroneous, the TIMY3
carries out a reset. Thus it is impossible to generate an invalid sync time. If the TIMY3 is sup-
plied by external power, it automatically restarts. In case of operation with internal power, the
TIMY3 turns off and has to be restarted.
Remove the GPS receiver from the TIMY3. Press <OK> to
start the selected program.
