Product Description
The frequency locking of the master oscillator to the system enables the internal GNSS receiver to generate fixed and programmable standard frequencies with high accuracy and stability. Various oscillator options allow the cost efficient implementation of different requirements concerning the accurracy of the outputs. The pulse generator of GNSS clock generates pulses per second and per minute. As an option up to four programmable outputs are available. The pulses are synchronized to UTC second.
Up to four serial interfaces are available for sending time strings. These ASCII telegrams include information regarding time, date and status of the GNSS receiver. The module provides two inputs for measurement of asynchronous time events. These capture events can be read via a serial interface.
The ../F4/.. models come with E1/T1 frequency outputs and are widely used in the telecommunicaton sector.
A powerful and feature-rich software called "Meinberg Device Manager" is available for configuration and monitoring your Meinberg GNSS receivers.
