Active system timing source
The Active System Timing Source indicates the timing source currently used to
synchronize the system, together with the Switch Status of the source and the latest
issued Switch Request.
Lock out
The user can disable a specific timing source that enters the timing source selection
without changing the priority settings. If a timing source is locked out, it will not take
part in the timing source selection.
Whether a timing source is locked out is indicated by the Lockout parameter. The
possible values for the Lockout parameter are: Yes and No.
