NTAK20 Clock Controller daughterboard

If the command "free run" is given, the clock controller enters the free-run
mode and remains there until a new command is received. Note that the
free-run mode of operation automatically initiates after the clock controller
has been enabled.

In the temporary absence of a synchronization reference signal, or when
sudden changes occur on the incoming reference due to error bursts, the
clock controller provides a stable holdover. Free-run mode is initiated
when the clock controller has no record of the quality of the incoming
reference clock.

If the command "free run" is given, the clock controller enters the free-run
mode and remains there until a new command is received. Free-run
automatically initiates after the clock controller has been enabled.
