Provisioning the Input Reference

ED-SYNC:[<tid>]:<aid>:[<ctag>]::<keyword>=<value>;

This command has a default access level of ADMIN.

<aid>	<keyword>		<value>	Description	Default value
PRS	QLEVEL	1 = PRC		Sets the Quality	2
INPp (p = 1 2)		2 = UNK/STU		Level for the
GPS		3 = TYPE II/ST2		specified input

		5	= TYPE V/TNC
		6	= TYPE III/ST3E
		7	= TYPE IV/ST3
		8	= G.813OPT3/SMC

Sample Commands

ED-SYNC::PRS:::QLEVEL=1;

ED-SYNC::INP1:::QLEVEL=1;

ED-SYNC::INP2:::QLEVEL=1;

This series of commands sets the QLEVEL for all inputs to the same level; if you also provision the PRIORITY level to the same value, then you have set up a non-revertive switching strategy.

Setting the Input Priority Level

The PRIORITY level works together with the QLEVEL parameter (described in Setting the Input Quality Level, on page 112) to determine the switching strategy. The PRIORITY level is the second factor the TimeProvider uses to determine which input to use when the original primary input becomes unavailable.

Use the ED-SYNC command to set the PRIORITY level of the selected reference.
