Network Port (“1588”)

AIEEE1588-compliant “ordinary clock” is available from a stand-alone Ethernet port, labelled “1588”, on the rear panel of the IEEE 1588 card.

Type:

Standard RJ-45 8-pin connector, 100 Base-T

Qty:

1

Packet type

Ethernet DIX II (RFC 894)

Protocols

IPV4, IEEE1588, 802.3, ARP, and PING

PPS Output (“SYNC OUT”)

A raw unfiltered PPS output is available from the stand-alone BNC connector, labelled “SYNC OUT”, on the rear panel of the IEEE 1588 card.

The PPS Output from the IEEE 1588 card while configured as a PTP master:

50% duty-cycle, +/-10% typical

Please consult the datasheet online for additional specifications.1

Behavior

The IEEE 1588 card can function as:

PTP Grandmaster

-Best Master

-Preferred Master

PTP Slave

-Primary Reference

-Secondary Reference

-Standby

User Interface

All of the IEEE 1588 card’s functions can be managed using the Web Interface (page 31), Command Line Interface (page 29), or Keypad/Display Interface (page 25).

The following 1588-related functions are available from the command and keypad/display interfaces:

F130 - Precision Time Protocol Status (page 116)

F131 - Precision Time Protocol Network Config (page 119)
