Calibrating the internal oscillator

The importance of calibration
This unit has an OCXO (oven-controlled crystal oscillator) that
provides 0.01ppm high-precision frequency output. However,
every clock generator, including this one, can normally be
expected to change over time.
In order to enable continued use with high-performance, this
unit has a function for calibrating the internal oscillator.
If you connect and input a 10MHz signal generated from
a GPS signal or a PPS signal, for example, to the dedicated
connector, the unit will recognize it
