•
network:
Network variables are values that specifically pertain to the network
settings of the instrument. They are settable by the user and automatically saved
when they are changed. They are physically stored on the flash drive so changing
the flash will cause you to lose your network settings. They are however preserved
during a software update.
•
settings:
Settings variables are values that are settable by the user. They are not
automatically saved however so the user must use the save command in order to
preserve the settings across a power cycle. Also note that they represent the
settings of the instrument and not necessarily the current state of the instrument.
•
status:
Status variable are values that indicate the current state of the instrument.
They are not settable by the user and can not be saved.
The show command can be used to view only a portion of the tree by requesting the
specific node within the hierarchy that you would like to view. For instance,
show
settings:gps
displays the current GPS settings for the instrument and
show status:gps
displays the current GPS status for the system.
Syntax

Software Update:
Description:
Execute software update.
The software can be upgraded remotely using this command. The tflex-*.iso image must
be obtained from the Symmetricom ftp site
ftp.timing.com/pub/ATS-6511
. Use binary
transfer mode for all file transfers. Upload the image to the unit using ftp with username
and password 'update'. Software release notes for each version are also available in the
same directory on the ftp site.
After successful completion of the software update, the unit will reboot, system settings
will be reset to their saved values, and hardware will undergo a complete reset, resulting in
the loss of output signals.
Syntax
: software_update <--ftp | --usb> [--file FILENAME] [--list]
--ftp The updater searches for an ISO file in the upload directory.
To upload an ISO file use FTP with username and password 'update'.
--usb The updater searches for an ISO file on a USB drive.
Not all units support connecting a USB drive.
--file ISO file name, needed only if more than one ISO file is found.
--list List available ISO files (list only; does not apply any update).
