4 Important Safety Information Connecting Data Cables During a thunderstorm, data transmission lines must not be connected or disconnected (risk of lightning). When wiring the devices, the cables must be connected or disconnected in the order of the arrangement described in the user documentation accompanying the device. Always attach all cables to the plug during connection and removal.
4.4 Protective Conductor- / Ground-Terminal ATTENTION! In order to ensure safe operation and to meet the requirements of IEC 62368-1, the device must be correctly connected to the protective earth conductor via the protective earth connection terminal. If an external earth connection is provided on the housing, it must be connected to the equipotential bonding rail (grounding rail).
4 Important Safety Information 4.6 Safety during Maintenance WARNING! When you are expanding the device, use only device parts that are approved for the system. Non-observance may result in injury to the EMC or safety standards and cause malfunction of the device. If device parts, which are released for the system, are extended or removed there may be a risk of injury in the area of the hands, due to the pull-out forces (approx.
4.8 Cleaning and Care ATTENTION! Do not wet clean the appliance! Penetrating water can cause considerable dangers to the user (e.g., electric shock). Liquid can destroy the electronics of the device! Liquid penetrates into the housing of the device and can cause a short circuit of the electronics. Only clean with a soft, dry cloth.
Return and Collection Systems For returning your old equipment, please use the country-specific return and collection systems available to you or contact Meinberg. The withdrawal may be refused in the case of waste equipment which presents a risk to human health or safety due to contamination during use.

6 GNSS Satellite Navigation 6 GNSS Satellite Navigation The satellite receiver clock GPS180 has been designed to provide extremely precise time to its user. The clock has been developed for applications where conventional radio controlled clocks can´t meet the growing require- ments in precision.
6.1 Time Zone and Daylight Saving GPS system time differs from the universal time scale (UTC) by the number of leap seconds which have been inserted into the UTC time scale since GPS was initiated in 1980. The current number of leap seconds is part of the navigation message supplied by the satellites, so the internal real time of the GPS180 is based on UTC time scale.

Antenna splitter option Several receivers can be connected to one antenna via the antenna splitter. Make sure, that the total length of a route going from the antenna via the splitter to the receiver, does not exceed the maximum cable length. The splitter may be installed at any position between the surge protector and the receiver.
The software is delivered on the USB stick included in the scope of delivery and does not need to be in- stalled or copied on the PC. The Meinberg Device Manager can be started directly from the USB data carrier.
To configure a microSync system you need the Meinberg Device Manager software. This tool is provided on the supplied USB stick. You can always download the latest version from our website: https://www.meinbergglobal.com/english/sw/mbg-devman.htm...
After the successful connection via the serial console (as described in chapter Initial Network Configura- tion), you can now use the Meinberg OS Wizard to configure the IP address for the first time. Select the same subnet mask as for your network adapter and an IP address which is located in the same subnet.
8.2 Initial Start of Operation First install the Meinberg Device Manager software supplied on the USB stick. After the setup, start the program. If you do not want to perform a setup on your computer, you can start the portable version of the Meinberg Device Manager software directly on the USB stick: USB Drive/Software/MbgDevMan/mbgdev- man_portable/mbgdevman.exe.
