Safety Warnings

WARNING: This unit contains lethal AC voltages.

Disconnect the unit from the AC supply before removing

the cover.

WARNING:

The lightning flash with an arrowhead inside of an equilateral triangle is

intended to alert the user to the presence of un-insulated “dangerous

voltage” within the product’s enclosure. The “dangerous voltage” may be

of sufficient magnitude to constitute as a risk of electrical shock to people.

CAUTION:

The exclamation point inside of an equilateral triangle is intended to alert

the user to the presence of important operation and maintenance

instructions in the user guide.

1 Introduction

1.1 Scope of Section

Section 1 provides a general description of the GPS8 Plus. The introduction is

divided into three parts; purpose of the equipment, physical and electrical

specification, and an identification of the external controls, indicators, and

connectors.

1.2 Purpose of Equipment

The GPS8 Plus is a multi-output precision time and frequency standard that uses

the Global Positioning System (GPS) to steer and hold an internal oscillator and

clock system precisely on time. It is designed for use in telecommunications,

power utility, and military communication applications. Time and frequency

information is maintained to high accuracy by the internal oscillator even if no

satellites can be tracked. Each space vehicle in the GPS system transmits time,

frequency, and navigation information in two formats.

•P code: a precision code restricted to authorized users.

•C/A code: an unrestricted code available for general use.

In both cases the time information is maintained by the USA Department of

Defense and is traceable to the USA Naval Observatory. The standard GPS8

Plus uses the C/A code.

The GPS8 Plus provides a wide range of output options to form a complete time

and frequency management system. In addition, satellite data and navigational

information is outputted in the form of longitude, latitude, and altitude for

applications where precise positions must be known. For fixed position

operation, precise averaging of the position is carried out by the GPS8 Plus over

24 hours.
