Time Code Output
There are two different kinds of Time Code outputs. Either amplitude-modulated (AM) or DC-Shift.
Connectors will be labeled as either AMCODE or DCCODE.
The Time Code is a “system signal”. This means that there is one Time Code signal that affects the
whole system. In other words, if your Sonoma has multiple Time Code outputs (AM or DC) and you
change the Time Code format, then all Time Code outputs will be affected.
The Time Code output is normally IRIG-B122 (AM) or B002 (DC) when shipped from the factory
but can be changed (see below). For details on signal definition see
Appendix H - Specifications
.
View and Change the Time Code Configuration
Use the
cpuio
command to view the optional outputs on the CPU Module. This command will list
any connector that has an optional I/O signal. Connectors are identified as A, B or C. Use the
sys-
temio
command to view the current setting for the Time Code format.
Command:
cpuio
Sonoma reply:

Fixed Rate Output (10 MPPS, etc.)
The Fixed Rate Output Option provides a customer-specified fixed rate output ranging from 1 PPS to
10 MPPS. The rear-panel connector will be labeled for the appropriate rate such as “10 MPPS” or “100
PPS”, etc. This signal is specified by the customer when the order is placed, preset at the factory, and
cannot be changed. For details on signal definition see Appendix H - Specifications .
