E.2.3 Acutime is not Responding

If the Acutime smart antenna is not responding to polls, the following

output is generated in the debug stream:

The last two lines of output on this screen show the Acutime NTP

driver reporting failure to receive a time stamp from the GPS. These

messages indicate that NTP is not receiving data from the reference

clock.
