Ensure that the Ethernet port used for PTP is connected to the network. Navigate to
MANAGEMENT > NETWORK: Network Setup , and verify the STATUS in the Ports panel.
Be sure that valid time and 1PPS references are currently selected: Navigate to
MANAGEMENT > OTHER: Reference Priority , and confirm Reference Priority con-
figuration, and Reference Status . Note that in order to operate properly as a Master
Clock, VersaSync must be synchronized to a non-PTP reference. The built-in GNSS ref-
erence provides all information needed with no user intervention. Should you, however,
be using a different reference, ensure that it transmits the following information.

2.7.10 GPSD Setup

GPSD is a free, open-source package used worldwide to manage GNSS systems and devices.
With GPSD support on a VersaSync, users are able to:
connect to the unit over a network via TCP at the specified port using any GPSD-com-
patable software
receive position and timing information from the GNSS receiver in a consistent format,
and
use the WebUI (or CLI) to configure the GPSD service and view status information.
GPSD can only be configured to track the VersaSync internal u-blox receiver (GDPS does not
currently apply to the internal IMU or gyro for navigation purposes)..
To configure GPSD on the WebUI, navigate to MANAGEMENT > NETWORK > GPSD Setup to
access the GSPD Setup Screen
The GPSD Setup Screen is divided into three panels:
