Safety regulations
The safety regulations and observance of the technical data serve to
ensure trouble-free operation of the device and protection of persons and
material. It is therefore of utmost importance to observe and compliance
with these regulations.
If these are not complied with, then no claims may be made under the
terms of the warranty. No liability will be assumed for any ensuing
damage.
Safety of the device
This device has been manufactured in accordance with the latest
technological standards and approved safety regulations
The device should only be put into operation by trained and qualified staff.
Care must be taken that all cable connections are laid and fixed in
position correctly. The device should only be operated with the voltage
supply indicated on the identification label.
The device should only be operated by qualified staff or employees who
have received specific instruction.
If a device must be opened for repair, this should only be carried out by
employees with appropriate qualifications or by hopf Elektronik GmbH.
Before a device is opened or a fuse is changed all power supplies must
be disconnected.
If there are reasons to believe that the operational safety can no longer be
guaranteed the device must be taken out of service and labelled
accordingly.
The safety may be impaired when the device does not operate properly or
if it is obviously damaged.
CE-Conformity
This device fulfils the requirements of the EU directive
89/336/EWG "Electromagnetic compatibility" and 73/23/EWG "Low
voltage equipment".
Therefore the device bears the CE identification marking
(CE = Communautés Européennes = European communities)
The CE indicates to the controlling bodies that the product complies with the requirements of
the EU directive - especially with regard to protection of health and safety for the operator
and the user - and may be released for sale within the common markets.

1 General
LAN Board 7271/7272 is a Network Time Server (NTS) for hopf GPS and DCF77 System
7001 and Base System 68xx (6842, 6850 and 6855) for 19“ or ½ 19“ (3U) racks and Slim
Line (1U).
Board 7271 is equipped with 10/100 Base-T (auto-sensing) Ethernet interface (ETH0).
Board 7272 is equipped with one or two Ethernet interfaces (ETH0 + ETH1) and can be
used in different Sub-Networks with respectively 10/100/1000 Base-T (autosensing). Both
interfaces allow the configuration of the board 7272.
Board 7271/7272 can be used by networks for highly accurate synchronisation over NTP
(Network Time Protocol),which is available worldwide. The following synchronisations
protocols are available:
NTP
SINEC H1 time data string
Daytime
Time
The network connection of the LAN Board 7271/7272 can be installed at any desired point
on the network.
Depending on the respective system, a number of these LAN Boards can be implemented in
the Base System on a modular basis.
A variety of management and monitoring functions are available (e.g. SNMP traps, E-mail
notification, Syslog messages).
Increased security is freely available via optional encryption methods such as symmetric
keys, Autokey and access restrictions and the disabling of unused protocols.
Extensive parameters are provided to suit the conditions of individual applications by means
of a variety of access / configuration channels.
LAN Board 7271/7272 can be accessed in the network via the hopf Base System
keyboard.
The Board is configured over Ethernet:
oHTTP/HTTPS WebGUI (Graphical User Interface) by means of a web browser
oOr text-based menus over Telnet and SSH
Various protocols (e.g. IPv4, http, https, Telnet etc.) are available for the Ethernet
connection.
