GPS Timing Source
The Brandywine GPS 4 Timing Source simply provides a 10 MHz and 1 Hz clock signal to the Protium for precision timing.
The Timing Source provides a reference clock to the RF equipment for timestamping. Timestamps are used to ensure the
correct alignment of data throughout the system. The serial port connection from the GPS Timing Source to the BTS server is
used for configuration and diagnostic purposes.
