SecureSync’s AC and DC input power connectors earthing pin. Caution: Electronic equipment is sensitive to Electrostatic Discharge (ESD). Observe all ESD precautions and safeguards when handling Orolia equipment. SAFETY: User Responsibilities The equipment must only be used in technically perfect condition. Check com- ponents for damage prior to installation.
2.2 Unpacking and Inventory Always follow the instructions set out in this Getting Started Guide, or in other Orolia documentation for this product. Observe generally applicable legal and other local mandatory regulations. Unpacking and Inventory Caution: Electronic equipment is sensitive to Electrostatic Discharge (ESD).
2.4 Mounting the Unit Antenna cable with SMA connector, or conversion cable GNSS antenna with mounting bracket GNSS antenna surge suppressor (recommended) GNSS antenna inline amplifier (optional for short cable lengths) For antenna installation guidelines, see the separate documentation shipped with the antenna components.
2.5 Connecting Supply Power 3. Secure the rack mount brackets to the rack using the #10-32 rack mount screws and #2 Phillips head screwdriver, 2 each per side of the rack. Connecting Supply Power Depending on the equipment configuration at time of purchase, SecureSync can be powered from: an AC input a DC input...
2.5 Connecting Supply Power Caution: This equipment has Double Pole/Neutral Line Fusing on AC power. Note: Important! SecureSync is earth grounded through the AC power con- nector. Ensure SecureSync is connected to an AC outlet that is connected to earth ground via the grounding prong (do not use a two prong to three prong adapter to apply AC power to SecureSync).
DC power plug for strain relief of the DC power input cable should be used when DC power is connected to SecureSync. Note: Orolia recommends to use a dedicated DC power supply switch to energize/de-energize SecureSync externally. Connecting Network Cables SecureSync provides a base 10/100 Ethernet port for full NTP functionality, as well as a comprehensive web-based user interface ("Web UI") for configuration, monitoring and dia-...
2.7 Connecting the GNSS Input Once the unit is up and running, verify that the green link light on the Ethernet port is illu- minated. The amber “Activity” link light may periodically illuminate when network traffic is present. "Network Setup" on the next page for more information.
2.9 Network Setup Figure 2-1: SecureSync front panel 3. Check the front panel status LED indicators: Power lamp should be solid green. Sync lamp will probably be red, since synchronization has not yet been achieved. Fault lamp will be OFF, or solid orange, indicating a minor alarm, or solid red, asserting a power-up frequency error alarm (until the disciplining state is reached.) Network Setup...
2.9 Network Setup Note: If DHCP is disabled, the default static IP address of the SecureSync unit is 10.10.201.x (x= dependent on ETH port). 2.9.1 Network connection (common tasks) : Note: The SecureSync network settings have DHCP enabled by default. Identify the IP address assigned to your SecureSync: Since the SecureSync defaults to DHCP, when a unit is connected to a DHCP-enabled net- work, an IP address should be assigned automatically.
Page 26
2.9 Network Setup In the CLI: Use the following command to set DHCP: dhcp4set <intfc> <on|off>, where the intfc is for Eth0 In the Web UI: 1. Navigate to MANAGEMENT > NETWORK > Network Setup. 2. Click on the gear icon next to an Ethernet port to change network settings for that port.
