Meinberg SyncBox PTPv2 - Manual (Page 5)

Quick Start Guide
One minute after power up you can connect via a null modem cable a serial
terminal from your PC. While booting the system the green „RDY“ LED is blinking
and switch on permanently if system is ready. You can use e.g. the standard
Hyperterminal program shipped with your Windows operating system. Configure
your terminal program with 38400 Baud, 8 Data bits, no parity and 1 Stop bit. The
terminal emulation have to set to VT100 (press RETURN for first connection):
The login name is always „root“. The password is “timeserver” by factory settings.
Type in the command „setup“ to enter the configuration program. All further settings
can be done with this program:
Choose the „Ethernet“ button to set up the network configuration. To get the time
of an external PTP IEEE1588 grandmaster you have to configure the SyncBox with
an unique IP address and the default gateway. The „MST“ and „SLV“ LEDs reflect
incoming and outgoing PTP packets: the „SLV“ LED will flash green if a valid PTP
packet will receive from an external PTP IEEE1588 grandmaster; the „MST“ LED
will flash if the SyncBox will send a PTP packet to the PTP network. While normal
operation of the SyncBox the „SLV“ LED should be flashing every 2 seconds.
After this all further settings can be done via network interface, either by using a
WEB browser or a Telnet Session.
The outputs of the SyncBox (10MHz, PPS and IRIG) will be enabled if the system
has been synchronized by an external PTP grandmaster once and the internal
oscillator (OCXO HQ) has warmed up. When outputs will be enabled can be set up in
the PTP configuration. The SyncBox will start with a non valid time until it it
synchronized by an external PTP IEEE1588 grandmaster once.
