About the IRIG Output Resolution

The IRIG output signals are generated from SecureSync's System Time, which
can be synced to one or more external input references (such as GPS, IRIG, PTP,
etc). The accuracy of the System time to true UTC time is dependent upon what
the selected external reference is (with GPS typically being the most accurate ref-
erence for the system to sync with).
IRIG AM synchronization of a device to its IRIG source is typically measured in the
tens of microseconds, while synchronization using a IRIG DCLS signal can typ-
ically provide around 100 nanoseconds or so (plus the cable delays between
SecureSync and the other device, as well as the processing delays of the other
system itself).
IRIG AM functionality is available through an option card.
Note that all IRIG outputs has its own available 'offset' capability, which is con-
figurable via SecureSync's Web UI, to help account for cabling and processing
delays of the device each output is connected with.

SS
Seconds (00-59), (00-60 for leap second)
z
The sign of the offset to UTC, + implies time is ahead of UTC
ZZ
The magnitude of the offset to UTC in units of half-hours.
If ZZ = 0, then z = +
m
Time mode character, is one of:
G = GPS
L = Local
U = UTC
T = TAI
CC
The current leap seconds
FF
The future leap seconds, which will show a leap second
pending 24 hours in advance
