The Spectracom IRIG formats use the control functions for BCD year information and a Time
Sync Status bit and in format E the control functions are used for straight binary seconds (SBS).
Refer to individual IRIG Time Code description figures and text. IRIG Standard 200-98 format B
had 27 control bits and format E had 45 bits for control functions. These control bits could be
used for any use and there was no defined function. Spectracom used the control function ele-
ment at index count 55 as the TIME SYNC STATUS and the sub-frame after position identifiers
P6 and P7 as the year info and for format E the sub-frame after P8 and P9 for the straight bin-
ary seconds (SBS). The position of the BCD year information does not conform to the newer
