The Menus in Detail
Root Menu
The root menu is shown when the receiver has completed initialization after power-
up. The first line of the display shows the receiver´s mode of operation as described
above. The text "NORMAL OPERATION" might be replaced by "COLD BOOT",
"WARM BOOT", "UPDATE ALMANAC". If the antenna is disconnected or not
working properly, the text "ANTENNA FAULTY" is displayed instead.
NORMAL OPERATION Mon, DD.MM.YYYY
UTC 12:00:00
The next two lines display the current date, the name of the time zone (as defined in
the setup menu) and local time. The last line shows the state of the synthesizer. It
might look like following:
"Synth disabled"
Synthesizer is disabled (frequency setted on 0.000)
"F.synth inhibited"
GPS170 is not synchronized jet, but the synthesizer will be en-
abled after synchronisation.
"..............(free)"
The frequency is generated, but the phase is not synchronous
to the pulse output P_SEC, either because the synthesizer is
enabled although GPS170 has not synchronosized jet or be
cause the frequency is setted to more than 10kHz.
