External Oscillator : It is possible for an external oscillator to be locked to SecureSync's 10 MHz output via an external PLL, with the lock state of the external PLL monitored by SecureSync. Contact Orolia for more information. 3.5.2 Configuring the Oscillator SecureSync is equipped with an internal oscillator.
TFOM is SecureSync’s estimation of how accurately it is synchronized with its time and 1PPS reference inputs, based on several factors, known as the Estimated Time Error ETE.
