2.5.14 4383A IRIG Input Card
This module has four input ports that can be used to recover time from an IRIG time source. Ports 1 and 2
support DC IRIG (Default B007) and Ports 3 and 4 support AM IRIG (Default B127). By default Port #1
is active, to select another source or IRIG format, use the
irig_input
command. If the IRIG Source does not
provide the year as part of the time code message, (i.e. B000/B120), the user can specify the year with the
command.
4380A>irig_input [slot#] [port#] [irig type] <year>
To verify the system settings, use settings hardware:slots:N where N = the slot # where the card is installed.

To verify the card is working properly, use the
status hardware:outputs:slots:N
command (N=Slot #) to
obtain the current status for a particular card. The selected IRIG Source will report as good, the other ports
will show as disabled.

Antenna Delay Calibration
Utilizing the 4380A as a precise time recovery system requires a complete calibration of the 4380A and
distribution system. Cables and distribution equipment external to the 4380A affect the calibration of the
overall system and will result in an offset from UTC(USNO). This section assumes the on-time-point
(OTP) of the system is the rear panel outputs on the 4380A. This may not be the desired location for the
OTP; users should refer to section 2.7 for information on changing the location of the OTP for the system.
For applications requiring the highest level of accuracy, the 4380A should be calibrated at Microsemi. This
process involves installing the user’s antenna and antenna cable at the factory and comparing the PPS
outputs to a system which has a known offset to UTC(USNO). Once the calibration is complete, the
antenna delay value is provided to the customer when the unit is delivered to the user. The PPS outputs
will be accurate to the precise calibration levels specified in Appendix A as long as the user installs the
antenna at a surveyed location. If a surveyed antenna location is not available, the 4380A can be used to
survey the location. See Section 2.4.5 on determining the antenna position.
