MINOR & MAJOR ALARMS
Two sets of relay contacts provide Minor and Major Alarm indications. A closed contact indicates normal
operation; an open contact indicates alarm condition. A Minor Alarm is reported if the system fault is detected,
but is still supplying reliable reference frequencies. A Major Alarm is reported if the system is no longer
supplying reliable reference signals or if a power supply failure occurs. The following conditions report Minor and
Major Alarms.
Table 1-8 provides details of all the fault conditions and when the when a Minor and Major Alarm is reported
including when the system will switch from GPS REF A to GPS REF B.
