Function Summary

The following summary lists all the XLi functions, identifies the user interfaces from which each one is
available, and provides a brief description of the function.
Available from: K = keypad, N = Network Port (Telnet), S = Serial Port, W = Web
Function Available
From Description
F1 – Time Zone Offset K,N,S,W Set the time offset for Standard and Local time
F2 – 12/24 Hour Format K,N,S,W Apply a 12 or 24-hour format to the Front Panel Display, to
F8, F9, and F90.
F3 – Time & Date K,N,S,W Set the time and date (when not already provided by a
reference source)
F4 – Serial Port Configuration K,N,W Configure the main serial port settings
F5 – Time-Quality Setup K,N,S,W Set the thresholds for each of the four time quality flags
F6 – Keypad Lock K*,N,S Lock keypad access to the XLi’s functions. (When locked,
F6 is the only function available from the keypad.)
F8 - Continuous Time Once-per-
Second N,S Output the time once-per-second (to the command line)
F9 - Time On Request N,S Output the time when triggered (to the command line)
F11 - Time Output Format N,S Change the format of the time output by F8 and F9
F13 – Time Error K,N,S,W View the current estimated worst case time error
F18 – Software Version Request K,N,S,W View the XLi’s software version information

coordinates of one or more GPS antennas.
F51 – GPS Antenna Cable Delay K,N,S,W Compensate for the delay caused by the length of the GPS
antenna cable. (Use F52 to adjust timing outputs.)
F52 – Distribution Cable Delay K,N,S,W Compensate for the length of the distribution cable on J2.
F53 – GPS Operation Mode K,N,S,W Operate specific GPS receivers in Time Mode for static
applications, or in Dynamic Mode for mobile applications.
