8. Display
8.1 Main Rotation
8.1.1 MAIN ROTATION FOOTER
•
Reference
: When PTP Mode is selected in the reference menu, the display in the Main Rotation pages indicates REF: PTP on
the left of the reference line with 4 different options to its right:
-
“Master: External”
-
“Master: Internal”
-
“Master: Internal / OCXO”
-
“Master: GPS Receiver”
As explained in 3.1 above, selecting PTP Mode in the reference menu means
that the DXD-8 will participate in the PTP Grandmaster selection (see 9.5,
Selecting a Grandmaster).
If another unit is selected by the BMCA, “Master: External” will be displayed
in the reference line. But, if the DXD-8 is selected, one of the other 3 options
above will be displayed: Internal, Internal /OCXO or GPS Receiver.
•
Lock Status
: The bottom line of the display has the usual LOCK status, but in the case where the DXD-8 is the grandmaster,
when locked it changes to "LOCKED / GRANDMASTER”.
In case the DXD is or becomes a PTP Salve, when locked it changes to “LOCKED / PTP SLAVE”.
Note that, if another source was selected in the reference menu, such as Video Sync, and the DXD-8 was simultaneously a PTP
Grandmaster, the same LOCK status would appear, but the REF line would indicate “REF: Input A/ Vid” (see example at 12.1).
8.1.2 MAIN ROTATION PAGES
The Main Rotation Pages are the pages appearing on the main display under normal operations, that is when neither the Status
nor the Set Up modes are activated. ‘Rotating’ through those pages is done with the RIGHT and LEFT keys. With the installation
of the PTP option, some pages have been modified, others have been added.
