Turning off the Rubidium Oscillator

To turn off the oscillator

•

Press the yellow

Rubidium Osc. On

action button.

The action button turns grey, and the text on the button changes to

Rubidium Osc. Off

.

Turning off the instrument

To turn off the instrument

•

Press the

ON/OFF

key.

The On LED, located on the front panel, extinguishes when the unit turned off, and the
instrument beeps.

Disconnecting a GNSS antenna

If you intend to use the TEM Module as a high accuracy timing reference, before
disconnecting the antenna, verify that the oscillator is finely tuned, and is in Holdover
mode. If you remove the antenna before placing the oscillator into Holdover mode, the
tuning frequency may drift slightly. The oscillator mode (status) appears on the LED
panel and the Action Panel of the UI.

To disconnect an antenna

1

Verify that the oscillator is in Holdover mode, or Fine Tune mode. If it is in Fine
Tune mode, force it into holdover mode using the

Force Holdover

action key.

2

Loosen the connector at the base of the antenna that is attached to the SMA
connector on the TEM Module (labeled

GNSS Antenna)

.

3

Gently pull the connector at the base of the antenna up to disengage the antenna
from the TEM Module.

The antenna is disconnected. Be certain to store the antenna per manufacturer instruc-
tions and specifications.

ALERT: Magnetic Field Sensitivity

Do not place a GNSS antenna with a magnetic base (or any magnetized
object) next to the TEM Module when operating, transporting, or storing the
module. Placing a magnetized object next to the module may damage the
module’s oscillator.
