Description


The frequency locking of the master oscillator to the GPS-system enables the module GPS170SV to generate fixed and optionally programmable standard frequencies with high accuracy and stability. Various oscillator options allow the cost efficient implementation of different requirements concerning the accurracy of the outputs.
The pulse generator of GPS170SV generates pulses per second and per minute. As an option three programmable outputs are available. The pulses are synchronized to UTC-second.
Up to four seriel interfaces are available for sending timestrings. These ASCII-telegrams include information regarding time, date and status of the GPS-receiver.
The module provides two inputs for measurement of asynchronous time events. These capture events can be read via a serial interface.
The parameter setting of the module is done by a monitor software.

Characteristics


Type of receiver: 6 channel GPS C/A-code receiver
Type of antenna: Remote powered GPS antenna/converter unit, up to 300m distance to antenna with RG58 and up to 700m distance with RG213 cable
Cable type: Coaxial cable RG58 indoor or outdoor usage (SMB-, N-Norm-connector)
Status info: Fail-LED shows that the internal timing has not been synchronized or that a system error occurred
Lock-LED shows that the calculation of the position has been achieved after reset
Synchronization time: Max. 1 minute in normal operation mode, approx. 12 minutes after a cold start (discharged buffer battery)
Frequency outputs: 10 MHz, 1 MHz, 100 kHz (TTL level)
Accuracy: ±5·10E-9 (timebase TCXO), GPS-synchronous for more than 20 minutes
Different oscillators available, look at oscillator options
Pulse outputs: Pulse per second (PPS) and pulse per minute (PPM). TTL level, pulse width: 200msec
Accuracy of pulse outputs: Dependant on oscillator option:
< ±250nsec (TCXO, OCXO LQ)
< ±100nsec (OCXO MQ, OCXO HQ, OCXO-DHQ, Rubidium)
Interface: Two independent serial RS232-interfaces, menu configurable
Data format of interfaces: Baudrate: 300, 600, 1200, 2400, 4800, 9600, 19200 Baud data format: 7N2, 7E1, 7E2, 8E1, 8N1, 8N2 Time telegram: Meinberg Standard-Telegram, SAT, Uni Erlangen (NTP), SPA, NMEA0183 (RMC), COMPUTIME or capture-telegramm
DCF77 emulation: DCF77-emulation, TTL-level
Switch outputs: Optional:
3 TTL outputs can configured independently for the following modes:
- free programmable cyclic or fixed impulses
- timer mode; three 'ON'- and three 'OFF'-states can be setup per day
The switch states can be inverted for all three outputs, the impulse lengths are configurable in 10msec steps in a range from 10msec to 10sec.
The impulse output can be configured for all channels together to 'always' or 'ifsync'.
Generated time codes: Optional:
IRIG B002, B122, B003, B123, B006, B126, B007, B127, IEEE1344 or AFNOR:
- AM-sinewave signal: 3Vpp (MARK), 1Vpp (SPACE) into 50 ohm
- TTL-level
Time-Trigger inputs: Resolution: 100 nsec, triggered by falling TTL slope
Time of trigger event readable via RS232-interface
Alarm output: Synchronous state of the module, TTL high level if synchronous
Dimensions of the front panel: 8HP/3U (40mm x 128mm)
Electrical connectors: 64 pin rear VG edge connector DIN 41612
Antenna connector: SMB-Subminiature-coaxial-connector
Power supply: +5V DC
Current consumption: +5V 1.1 A to 1.4 A (depending on oscillator type)
Backup battery type: When main power supply fails, hardware clock runs free on quartz basis, almanac data is stored in RAM
Life time of lithium battery min. 10 years
Firmware: Flash-EPROM, bootstrap loader
Board type: Eurocard
Ambient temperature: 0 ... 50°C / 32 ... 122°F
