1. Features
1.1. Introduction
[Figure 1- 1] PTS-10 Time Server
The PTS-10 Time Server is a standard time server. It supports high precision reference
clock, which can be synchronized to absolute time such as GPS, BDS, and GLONASS.
The reference clock can also be synchronized to local time source through an external
IRIG-B interface, PPS interface or other local time sources. Built-in OXCO help to
provide stable reference frequency source. System supports multiple sources time
sync auto selection algorithm which can perform stable switch between GPS, BDS,
GLONASS, IRIG-B, PTP and local clock, and sky/ground and master/slave clock backup.
PTS time server provides flexible time synchronization signal output slots which can
help to configure different timing output interface channel. The output timing
channels include PPS, PPM, 10M, IRIG-B (DC), IRIG-B (AC), Serial Time Signal (TOD etc.)
etc. Plus, PTS-10 supports network sync time protocols NTP/SNTP/ IEEE1588 V2.0.
IEEE1588 works in several modes by the software configuration including grandmaster
clock, slave clock and boundary clock. PTS-10 has LCD to show any status and do
configuration by keyboard. Meanwhile, PTS-10 is designed to send timing source
status and clock status to control center by IEC61850 MMS, IEC60870-T104, DNP3.0,
Modbus, etc.
