3 General information
The satellite clocks made by Meinberg have been designed to provide extremely precise time to their users. The
clocks have been developed for applications where conventional radio clocks cant meet the growing requirements
in precision. High precision available 24 hours a day around the whole world is the main feature of the new system
which receives its information from the satellites of the Global Positioning System.
The Global Positioning System (GPS) is a satellite-based radio-positioning, navigation, and time-transfer sys-
tem. It was installed by the United States Department of Defense and provides two levels of accuracy: The
Standard Positioning Service (SPS) and the Precise Positioning Service (PPS). While PPS is encrypted and only
available for authorized (military) users, SPS has been made available to the general public.
GPS is based on accurately measuring the propagation time of signals transmitted from satellites to the users
receiver. A nominal constellation of 24 satellites together with some active spares in six orbital planes 20,000
km over ground provides a minimum of four satellites to be in view 24 hours a day at every point of the globe.
Four satellites need to be received simultaneously if both receiver position (x, y, z) and receiver clock oset from
GPS system time must be computed. All the satellites are monitored by control stations which determine the
exact orbit parameters as well as the clock oset of the satellites on-board atomic clocks. These parameters
are uploaded to the satellites and become part of a navigation message which is retransmitted by the satellites in
order to pass that information to the users receiver.
The high precision orbit parameters of a satellite are called ephemeris parameters whereas a reduced precision
subset of the ephemeris parameters is called a satellites almanac. While ephemeris parameters must be evaluated
to compute the receivers position and clock oset, almanac parameters are used to check which satellites are in
view from a given receiver position at a given time. Each satellite transmits its own set of ephemeris parameters
and almanac parameters of all existing satellites.

5 GPS170PCI features
The satellite controlled clock GPS170PCI is a plug-in board designed for computers with 3.3V or 5V PCI bus
running with clock frequencies of 33MHz or 66MHz. The rear slot cover intergrates the antenna connector, the
modulated timecode, two status LEDs, and a 9 pin Sub-D male connector.
The antenna/converter unit is connected to the receiver by a 50 Ω coaxial cable with length up to 300m (when
using RG58 cable). Power is supplied to the unit DC insulated across the antenna cable. Optionally, an over
voltage protection and an antenna distributor are available. The antenna distributor can be used to operate up
to 4 Meinberg GPS receivers using a single antenna/converter unit.
The navigation message coming in from the satellites is decoded by satellite clock's microprocessor in order
to track the GPS system time with an accuracy of better than 250nsec. Compensation of the RF signals prop-
agation delay is done by automatic determination of the receivers position on the globe. A correction value
computed from the satellites navigation messages increases the accuracy of the boards temperature compen-
sated master oscillator (TCXO) to +- 5(10
9
) and automatically compensates the TCXOs aging. The last recent
value is restored from the nonvolatile memory at power-up. Optionally, the clock is also available with a higher
precision time base.
Monitoring software shipped with the board can be use to check the cloick's status and congure some op-
erational parameters
5.1 Time zone and daylight saving
GPS system time diers from the universal time scale (UTC) by the number of leap seconds which have been
inserted into the UTC time scale after GPS has been initiated in 1980. The current number of leap seconds is
part of the navigation message supplied by the satellites, so the satellite clocks internal real time is based on
UTC. Conversion to local time including handling of daylight saving year by year can be done by the receivers
microprocessor. For Germany, the local time zone is UTC + 3600 sec for standard time and UTC + 7200 sec if
daylight saving is in eect.
The clock's microprocessor determines the times for start and end of daylight saving time by a simple algo-
rithm e. g. for Germany:
Start of DST is on the rst Sunday after March, 25th, at 2 o'clock standard time.
End of DST is on the rst Sunday after October, 25th, at 3 o'clock daylight time.
The monitoring software shipped with the board can be used to congure the time zone and daylight savings
parameters easily. Switching to daylight saving time is inhibited if for both start and end of daylight saving the
parameters are exactly the same.
The timecode (IRIG, AFNOR, IEEE) generated by GPS170PCI is available with these settings or with UTC
as reference. This can be set by the monitor program.
5.2 Asynchronous serial ports
Two asynchronous serial interfaces (RS232) called COM0 and COM1 are available to the user. Only COM0 is
available at the rear panel slot cover, COM1 must use another submin-D connector which can optionally be con-
nected to the 5 pin jumper block on the board. The monitoring program can be used to congure the outputs. In
the default mode of operation, the serial outputs are disabled until the receiver has synchronized after power-up.
However, they can be congured to be enabled immediately after power-up.
GPS170PCI Date: 12th July 2012 5

Page 6 5 GPS170PCI features
Transmission speed, framing and mode of operation can be congured individually for each port. Both of the
ports can be congured to transmit either time strings (once per second, once per minute, or on request with
ASCII ? only), or to transmit capture strings (automatically when available, or on request). The format of the
output strings is ASCII, see the technical specications at the end of this document for details.
5.3 Time capture inputs
The board provides two time capture inputs called User Capture 0 and 1 (CAP0 and CAP1) which can be mapped
to pins at the 9 pin connector at the rear panel. These inputs can be used to measure asynchronous time events.
A falling TTL slope at one of these inputs lets the microprocessor save the current real time in its capture buer.
From the buer, an ASCII string per capture event can be transmitted via COM1 or displayed using the monitoring
program. The capture buer can hold more than 500 events, so either a burst of events with intervals down to
less than 1.5 msec can be recorded or a continuous stream of events at a lower rate depending on the transmission
speed of COM1 can be measured. The format of the output string is described in the technical specications at
the end of this document. If the capture buer is full a message "** capture buer full" is transmitted, if the
interval between two captures is too short the warning "** capture overrun" is being sent via COM1.
5.4 Pulse and frequency outputs
The pulse generator of the satellite controlled clock GPS170 contains three independent channels (PPO0, PPO1,
PPO2). These TTL outputs can be mapped to pins at the 9-pin connector at the rear slot cover by using a DIL
switch. The pulse generator is able to provide a multitude of dierent pulses, which are congured with the moni-
tor program. The active state of each channel is invertible, the pulse duration settable between 10 msec and 10 sec
in steps of 10 msec. In the default mode of operation the pulse outputs are disabled until the receiver has synchro-
nized after power-up. However, the system can be congured to enable those outputs immediately after power-up.
The following modes can be congured for each channel independently:
Timer mode: Three on- and o-times per day per channel programmable
Cyclic mode: Generation of periodically repeated pulses.
A cycle time of two seconds would generate a pulse at
0:00:00, 0:00:02, 0:00:04 etc.
DCF77-Simulation mode: The corresponding output simulates the DCF77 time telegram.
The time marks are representing the local time as congured by the user.
Single Shot Mode: A single pulse of programmable length is generated once a day at a
programmable point of time
Per Sec.
Per Min.
Per Hr. modes: Pulses each second, minute or hour
Status: One of three status messages can be emitted:
`position OK': The output is switched on if the receiver was able to
compute its position
`time sync': The output is switched on if the internal timing is
synchronous to the GPS-system
`all sync': Logical AND of the above status messages.
The output is active if position is calculated AND the
timing is synchronized
Idle-mode: The output is inactive
The default conguration for the pulse outputs is:

PPO0: Pulse each second (PPS), active HIGH, pulse duration 200 msec
PPO1: Pulse each minute (PPM), active HIGH, pulse duration 200 msec

5.5 DCF77 Emulation Page 7
PPO2: DCF77 Simulation
A TTL level master frequency of 10 MHz is derived from the TCXO. By default, this frequency is available only
at the 5 pin contact strip of the board.
5.5 DCF77 Emulation
The satellite controlled clock generates TTL level time marks (active HIGH) which are compatible with the time
marks spread by the German long wave transmitter DCF77. This long wave transmitter installed in Mainingen
near Frankfurt/Germany transmits the reference time of the Federal Republic of Germany: time of day, date
of month and day of week in BCD coded second pulses. Once every minute the complete time information is
transmitted. However, the generates time marks representing its local time as congured by the user, including
announcement of changes in daylight saving and announcement of leap seconds. The coding sheme is given
below:
M Start of Minute (0.1 s)
R RF Transmission via secondary antenna

Time marks start at the beginning of new second. If a binary "0" is to be transmitted, the length of the
corresponding time mark is 100 msec, if a binary "1" is transmitted, the time mark has a length of 200 msec.
The information on the current date and time as well as some parity and status bits can be decoded from the
time marks of the 15th up to the 58th second every minute. The absence of any time mark at the 59th second
of a minute signals that a new minute will begin with the next time mark. The DCF emulation output is enabled
immediately after power-up.

The coaxial antenna connector, two status LEDs and
a 9 pin sub D connector can be found in the rear slot
cover. (see gure). The upper, green LED (LOCK) is
turned on when after power-up the receiver has acquired
at least four satellites and has computed its position.
In normal operation the receiver position is updated
continuously as long
as at least four satellites can be received.
The lower, red LED (FAIL) is turned on after power-up
until the receiver has synchronized or if a severe error
occurs during operation.
The 9 pin sub D connector is wired to the serial port
COM0. Pin assignment can be seen from the gure
beside. This port can not be used as serial port for the
computer. Instead, it can be uses to send out Mein-
berg's standard time string to an external device.
A DIL switch on the board can be used to wire
some TTL inputs or outputs (0..5V) to some con-
nector pins. In this case, absolute care must be
taken if another device is connected to the port,
because voltage levels of -12V through +12V (as
commonly used with RS-232 po rts) at TTL inputs
or outputs may damage the radio clock.
Behind the little hole in the slot cover there is a push button (BSL) which is needed if the clock's rmware shall
be updated. See the chapter about rmware updates for details.

7 Installing the radio clock
Every PCI board is a plug&play board. After power-up, the computer's BIOS assigns resources like I/O ports and
interrupt lines to the board, the user does not need to take care of the assignments. The programs shipped with
the board retrieve the settings from the BIOS.
7.1 Configuring the 9 pin connector
By default only the signals needed for the serial port COM0 are mapped to the pins of the connector. Whenever
one of the additional signals shall be used, the signal must be mapped to a pin by putting the appropriate lever
of the DIL switch in the ON position. The table below shows the pin assignments for the connector and the DIL
switch lever assigned to each of the signals. Care must be taken when mapping a signal to Pin 1, Pin 4 or Pin 7
of the connector, because one of two dierent signals can be mapped to these Pins. Only one switch may be put
in the ON position in this case:
Pin 1: DIL 1 or DIL 8 ON
Pin 4: DIL 5 or DIL 10 ON
Pin 7: DIL 3 or DIL 7 ON

7.2 Installing the GPS170PCI in your computer
The computer has to be turned o and its case must be opened. The radio clock can be installed in any PCI
Express slot not used yet. The rear plane must be removed before the board can be plugged in carefully. The
computers case should be closed again and the antenna can be connected to the coaxial plug at the clock's rear

slot cover. After the computer has been restarted, the monitor software can be run in order to check the clock's
conguration.The computers case should be closed again and the antenna must be connected to the appropriate
connector.
7.3 Powering up the system
After the board has been mounted and the antenna has been connected, the system is ready to operate. About
10 seconds after power-up the receivers TCXO operates with the required accuracy. If the receiver nds valid
almanac and ephemeris data in its battery buered memory and the receivers position has not changed signif-
icantly since its last operation the receiver can nd out which satellites are in view now. Only a single satellite
needs to be received to synchronize and generate output pulses, so synchronization can be achieved at least one
minute after power-up. After 20 minutes of operation the TCXO has achieved its nal accuracy and the generated
frequencies are within the specied tolerances.
If the receiver position has changed by some hundred kilometers since last operation, the satellites real ele-
vation and Doppler might not match those values expected by the receiver thus forcing the receiver to start
scanning for satellites. This mode is called Warm Boot because the receiver can obtain ID numbers of existing
satellites from the valid almanac. When the receiver has found four satellites in view it can update its new
position and switch to normal operation. If the almanac has been lost because the battery had been disconnected
the receiver has to scan for a satellite and read in the current almanacs. This mode is called Cold Boot. It
takes 12 minutes until the new almanac is complete and the system switches to Warm Boot mode scanning for
other satellites. In the default mode of operation, neither pulse outputs nor the serial ports will be enabled after
power-up until synchronization has been achieved.
However, it is possible to congure some or all of those outputs to be enabled immediately after power-up.
If the system starts up in a new environment (e. g. receiver position has changed or new power supply) it can
take some minutes until the TCXOs output frequency has been adjusted. Up to that time accuracy of frequency
drops to 10-8 reducing the accuracy of pulses to +-2 µ s.
7.3.1 Mounting the GPS Antenna
The GPS satellites are not stationary, but circle round the globe with a period of about 12 hours. They can only
be received if no building is in the line-of-sight from the antenna to the satellite, so the antenna/downconverter
unit must be installed in a location that has as clear a view of the sky as possible. The best reception is achieved
when the antenna has a free view of 8
◦
angular elevation above the horizon. If this is not possible, the antenna
should be installed with the clearest free view to the equator, because the satellite orbits are located between
latitudes 55
◦
North and 55
◦
South. If this is not possible, you may experience diculty receiving the four satellites
necessary to complete the receiver's position solution.
The unit can be mounted using a pole with a diameter up to 60 mm. A standard coaxial cable with 50 Ω
impedance (e.g. RG58C) should be used to connect the antenna/converter unit to the receiver. Cable thinner
than RG58 should be avoided due to its higher DC resistance and RF attenuation. When using the optional
antenna diplexer the total length of one antenna line between antenna, diplexer and receiver must not be longer
than 300 m. If a cable with less attenuation is used its length may be increased accordingly (e.g. 700 m with
RG213).
Up to four GPS170 receivers can be run with one antenna/downconverter unit by using an optional antenna
splitter. The total length of one antenna line between antenna, splitter and receiver must not be longer than the
max. length shown in the table above. The position of the splitter in the antenna line does not matter.
High voltage protectors must be installed directly after reaching the indoors. The optional delivered protec-
tion kit is not for outdoor usage.

8 Firmware updates
Whenever the on-board software must be upgraded or modied, the new rmware can be downloaded to the
internal ash memory via the radio clock's serial port COM0. There is no need to open the computer case and
insert a new EPROM.
If the button behind a hole in the rear slot cover is pressed for approximately 2 seconds, a bootstrap loader
is activated and waits for instructions from the serial port COM0. A loader program shipped together with the
le containing the image of the new rmware sends the new rmware from one of the computer's serial ports to
the clock's serial port COM0. The bootstrap loader does not depend on the contents of the ash memory, so if
the update procedure is interrupted, it can easily be repeated.
The contents of the program memory will not be modied until the loader program has sent the command
to erase the ash memory. So if the button has been pressed accidentally, the system will be ready to operate
again after the computer has been turned o and then on again.

10 Time codes
The transmission of coded timing signals began to take on widespread importance in the early 1950s. Especially
the US missile and space programs were the forces behind the development of these time codes, which were used
for the correlation of data. The denition of time code formats was completely arbitrary and left to the individual
ideas of each design engineer. Hundreds of dierent time codes were formed, some of which were standardized
by the Inter Range Instrumentation Group (IRIG) in the early 60s.
Except these IRIG Time Codes other formats, like NASA36, XR3 or 2137, are still in use. The board GPS170PCI
however generates the IRIG-B, AFNOR NFS 87- 500 code as well as IEEE1344 code which is an IRIG-B123 coded

10.1 The time code generator
The board GPS170PCI generates modulated and un-modulated timecodes. Modulated signals are transmitting
the information by varying the amplitude of a sine wave carrier, un-modulated timecodes are transmitted by pulse
duration modulation of a DC-signal (TTL in case of GPS170PCI), see chapter IRIG standard format for details.
The sine wave carrier needed for modulated signals is generated in a digital way by a programmable logic device
on the board. The frequency of this signal is derived from the main oscillator of GPS170PCI, which is disciplined
by the GPS-system.
This leads to a sine wave carrier with high accuracy. Transmission of date is synchronized by the PPS (pulse per
second) derived from the GPS-system. The modulated time code has an amplitude of 3Vpp (MARK) and 1Vpp
(SPACE) into 50 O. The number of MARK-amplitudes within ten periods of the carrier denes the coding:
a) binary 0 : 2 MARK-amplitudes, 8 SPACE-amplitudes
b) binary 1 : 5 MARK-amplitudes, 5 SPACE-amplitudes
c) position-identier : 8 MARK-amplitudes, 2 SPACE-amplitudes
The DC-signal has the following pulse durations accordingly:
a) binary 0 : 2 msec
b) binary 1 : 5 msec
c) position-identier : 8 msec
