  • Page 13: Start-Up

    GPS Network Time Server Start-Up Preliminary connections Before starting up the GPS Network Time Server, the following operations should be performed: • Place the system so that the lower and upper cooling air inlets are not obstructed. • Place the GPS antenna outdoor in a position such that it views the sky directly over 360 degrees (e.
  • Page 14: Connection Quality

    GPS Network Time Server • Connect the power supply circuit to the mains socket, or connect a DC power supply (24V for Series 2S or 48V for Series 2T) to the DC Power connector J2. CAUTION A break of the arrester conductor, inside or outside the unit, or disconnecting the earth terminal may turn the unit hazardous.

    110-9. Under such condition, the clock no longer synchronizes with the GPS source. In this case, contact the Black Box technical support. In continuous operation, the same faults cause the "POWER" indicator to go red. Setting out of service To set the GPS Network Time Server out of service, set the switch to position O and disconnect the "DC Power"...
  • Page 17: Operation

    GPS Network Time Server Operation Adjusting to UTC time This mode is used to acquire the time output from an external U.T.C. reference and to initialise the internal time of the system. The U.T.C. time reference is acquired fully automatically from the GPS receiver. This operating mode is accessed automatically at the end of successful self-testing.
  • Page 18: Ntp Server Operation

    GPS Network Time Server NTP server operation The GPS Network Time Server is a level 1 time server, according to the definition of time broadcasting and synchronization given in the NTP recommendation. It operates in conformance with the NTP version 3 described in recommendation RFC 1305. It delivers time information over the network in the server mode, only in response to client polling.
  • Page 19: Maintenance

    GPS Network Time Server Maintenance The GPS Network Time Server operates automatically. It requires no maintenance over a 10- year period. Apart from replacing, where necessary, one of the installation units, following damage or fault, the only curative maintenance operation consists of replacing the 2 fuses of the AC power supply.
