Navigating the TEM Module user interface
The TEM Module user interface (UI) lets you configure the module, control the module’s
rubidium oscillator, survey GNSS constellations (to obtain position measurements from
satellites within the constellation), and review test results associated with the timing
Wait for 1PPS
The TEM Module is waiting for a valid 1PPS signal
from the specified synchronization source.
Coarse Tune
The oscillator is beginning to tune to the frequency for
the synchronization source that you specified when
you configured the oscillator. After you turn the oscilla-
tor on, it may take 7 to 12 minutes to reach a coarse
tune. The oscillator will remain coarsely tuned for at
least 17 minutes.
Intermediate Tune
The oscillator is tuned to the frequency of the syn-
chronization source that you specified when you con-
figured the oscillator, and the oscillator has been
tuned for a sufficient period of time to support accu-
racy in holdover mode, after frequency stabilization.
After you turn the oscillator on, it will take at least 20
to 25 minutes to reach an intermediate tune. The
oscillator will remain in an intermediately tuned mode
for at least 167 min.
Fine Tune
The oscillator is finely tuned to the frequency of the
synchronization source that you specified when you
configured the oscillator, and the oscillator has been
tuned for a sufficient period of time to support accu-
racy in holdover mode, after frequency stabilization.
Holdover
The oscillator was placed into holdover mode (either
manually, using the
Force Holdover
action key, or
due to the removal of a GNSS antenna or an external
timing reference).
NOTE:
For optimal performance during testing, allow
the oscillator to reach Fine Tune mode before placing
it into Holdover mode.
