15.9.7 Selection of Generated Time Code
The time code to be generated can be selected by Menu Setup IRIG-settings or the GPS Monitorprogram
GPSMON32 (except Lantime models). DC-Level Shift Codes (PWM-signal) B00x and modulated sine wave
carrier B12x are always generated simultaneously. Both signals are provided at the VG64-Connector, i.e. if code
B132 is selected also code B002 is available. This applies for the codes AFNOR NFS 87-500 and IEEE1344 as well.
The TFOM eld in IEEE1344 code is set dependent on the 'already sync'ed' character ('#') which is sent
in the serial time telegram. This character is set, whenever the preconnected clock was not able to synchronize
after power up reset. The 'time gure of merit' (TFOM) eld is set as follows.
Clock synchronized once after power up:
TFOM = 0000
Clock not synchronized after power up:
TFOM = 1111
For testing purposes the output of TFOM in IEEE1344 mode can be disabled. The segment is set to all zeros
then.
