<BR>Reference ID: <TT>GPS</TT>

<BR>Driver ID: <TT>GPS_AS2201</TT>

<BR>Serial Port: <TT>/dev/gps<I>u</I></TT>; 9600 baud, 8-bits, no parity

This driver supports the Austron 2200A/2201A GPS/LORAN Synchronized Clock
24
and Timing Receiver connected via a serial port. It supports several special
25
features of the clock, including the Input Buffer Module, Output Buffer
26
Module, IRIG-B Interface Module and LORAN Assist Module. It requires the
27
RS232 Buffered Serial Interface module for communication with the driver.
28
For operation with multiple computers, it requires the <TT>ppsclock</TT>
29
streams module described in the <A HREF="ldisc.htm">Line Disciplines and
30
Streams Modules</A> page. The streams module requires a gadget box and
31
1-PPS level converter, such as described in the <A HREF="pps.htm">Pulse-per-second
32
(PPS) Signal Interfacing</A> page.
34
<P>For use with a single computer, the receiver can be connected directly
35
to the receiver. For use with multiple computers, one of them is connected
36
directly to the receiver and generates the polling messages. The other
37
computers just listen to the receiver output directly or through a buffer
38
amplifier. For computers that just listen, <TT>fudge flag2</TT> must be
39
set and the <TT>ppsclock </TT>streams module configured on each of them.
41
<P>This receiver is capable of a comprehensive and large volume of statistics
42
and operational data. The specific data collection commands and attributes
43
are embedded in the driver source code; however, the collection process
44
can be enabled or disabled using the flag4 flag. If set, collection is
45
enabled; if not, which is the default, it is disabled. A comprehensive
46
suite of data reduction and summary scripts is in the ./scripts/stats directory
47
of the ntp3 distribution.
50
When enabled by the <TT>flag4</TT> fudge flag, every received timecode
51
is written as-is to the <TT>clockstats</TT> file.
