Causes and Fixes

During normal operation of a GPS time synching system, time signals are sent out once per second as an ASCII string containing the time. The ASCII time string for GPS:ARBITER and GPS:TRUETIME/DATUM is as follows:

<SOH>DDD:HH:MM:SSQ<CR><LF>

Response: <SOH>ddd:hh:mm:ssQ<CR><LF>

Format: <SOH> Hex 01 The start bit of the <SOH> character is transmitted on time.

Q Time quality indicator. May be represented by:

space Locked, maximum accuracy

. (ASCII 46) Error < 1 microsecond

* (ASCII 42) Error < 10 microseconds

# (ASCII 35) Error < 100 microseconds

? (ASCII 63) Error > 100 microseconds
