I discovered the patched version of ntp and the serialpps.sys driver that Dave Hart created. I have been using a reference clock on my Linux system (using LinuxPPS, the convergence kernel patch and a nanosecond patched glibc) for some time now and have wanted to use that reference clock when the machine is booted over to Windows. I installed ntp-4.2.4p6-DHL-QPC-20090315-bin.zip and serialpps-20090329.zip and attempted to get it to work.
I am using a Motorola Oncore UT+ and I thought that I should be able to use the Atom (PPS) driver but I have not been able to get this to work. In the ntp log I get: 26 May 23:28:46 ntpd.exe[200]: clock PPS(1) event 'clk_noreply' (0x01) So it looks like the atom driver does not see that the PPS is available. In a private email from someone else who uses the Dave Hart code I was told "I can see what you are trying to do, but it looks like Dave Hart's code says something like "No serial data, so no PPS timestamps", or that the connection to the serialpps.sys is built into the NMEA driver rather than separately." I have not looked at the code so I don't know if this in fact the case. I know when I try to load the NMEA driver that it fails as I would expect it to since the Oncore is not a NMEA device. Can someone here give me some clues about what needs to be done to get the Atom driver to work with serialpps.sys with out a NMEA device?
