LCD Display
On initial power-up, the LCD display shows a copyright message, along with the serial number and NTS
02-G firmware version (see figure 3a).
Approximately 10 seconds after power-up, if the NTS 02-G is operating in its default mode as a GNSS
synchronized grandmaster clock, then the display changes automatically to indicate that it is waiting for
satellites (see figure 3b).
Once one or more satellites have been discovered, it transitions to the operating default display (see
figure 3c). Figures 3d and 3e show alternative time displays that can be accessed by pressing the button
on the front panel between the LED indicators.
Successive button-pushes can be used to cycle through all the display screens in turn. Examples of the
display screens are shown below:
