Timescale: Used to select the time base for the incoming ASCII time code
data. The entered Timescale is used by the system to convert the time in
the incoming ASCII data stream to UTC time for use by the System Time.
The available choices are:
UTC: Coordinated Universal Time ("temps universel coordonné"), also
referred to as ZULU time
TAI: Temps Atomique International
GPS: The raw GPS time as transmitted by the GNSS satellites (as of
July, 2015, this is 17 seconds ahead of UTC time)
A local clock set up through the Time Management Page: This option
will appear under the name of the local clock you have set up. Refer
to "The Time Management Screen" on page 186
on how to configure and read the System Time. Local timescale
allows a Local Clock to apply a time offset for Time Zone and DST cor-
rection.
The incoming input time information may be provided as local time,
but System Time may be configured as UTC time, so internal com-
putations need to be performed. With the Timescale field set to
"Local", select the name of a previously created Local Clock. The Time
Zone and DST rules, as configured in the Local Clock will be applied
to the front panel time display. See .
Note: The Timescale of the ASCII input (as configured in the
ASCII time source) must be set correctly, especially if other
input references are enabled.
Failure to configure the Timescale of the ASCII input correctly
could result in time jumps occurring in the System Time when
input reference changes occur. These time jumps could affect
NTP and normal operation of the system.
Baud Rate: Determines the speed that the output port will operate at.
Data Bits: Defines the number of data bits for the output port.
Parity: Configures the parity checking of the output port.
Stop Bits: Defines the number of stop bits for the output.
