2.11.3 Configuration — General Steps
Ensure that the Ethernet port used for PTP is connected to the network. Navigate
to
MANAGEMENT > NETWORK: Network Setup , and verify the STATUS in the
Ports panel.
Be sure that valid time and 1PPS references are currently selected: Navigate to
MANAGEMENT > OTHER: Reference Priority , and confirm Reference Priority
configuration, and Reference Status . Note that in order to operate properly as a
Master Clock, VelaSync must be synchronized to a non-PTP reference. The built-in
GNSS reference provides all information needed with no user intervention. Should
you, however, be using a different reference, ensure that it transmits the following
information.
The proper TAI or UTC time (including the current year).
The current TAI to UTC offset (required even if the reference’s time is in
TAI).
Pending leap second information at least a day in advance.
2.12 PRISMA Compliance Setup
VelaSync can send information on well it is synchronized to a PRISMA Compliance Server.
This requires the use of a terminal emulator; for information on the setup and use of a CLI,
see
"Command-Line Interface" on page 215 .
Please see the PRISMA Compliance documentation for more information on the general
operation of the PRISMA Compliance system.
Two main parameters can be controlled through the VelaSync CLI:
the
database.address
is the IP address of the PRISMA Compliance database
the
device.identity
is the name that will be used in the PRISMA Compliance
database for this node (if this is left blank, PRISMA Compliance will use the device IP
address).
To communicate with PRISMA Compliance, use the following CLI com-
mands:
compliance-transmitter-config get
show the current parameter values
compliance-transmitter-config set database.address <address>:<port>
set the database address
the database port must be included. In most installations, this will be port 2836
