You could connect them to your system via 8-pin connector. There are two serial channels (one is for TSIP protocol, another is for NMEA), voltage levels are CMOS and you should power the board with 5 volts. You can take the pinout from Lassen LP board. ___ time-nuts mailing list -- time-nuts@febo.com To unsubscribe, go to https://www.febo.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/time-nuts and follow the instructions there.

Jason Thank you for your information on the Datum 2100 GPS - I now have this basically 'set-up' and I wonder, as its a Trimble Rx. if it can be accessed through its RS232 port using the Trimble software ?

Jason Re: Datum TS2100 I have only recently obtained a Datum 2100 GPS - its working fine, but it has been suggested that the Oscillator is not disciplined by the GPS - can somebody confirm this ? A brief look inside has established that it has a Trimble GPS unit, which would seem to be the same as per your discussion. Is it possible to obtain the Technical Manual for this equipment ?

Re: [time-nuts] Datum ts2100 gps error code 41: New clone ace III
Hal, I may take you up on that. However, looking through the manual, it appears that not all of that type/firmware support WRNO. Supposedly, based on my digging, early ones did not, the later ones did. Next step is to ensure that the number formatting output by the new clone corresponds to the output of the sveesix. I'm curious, based on the fact that the polled messages work (firmware and satellite id\signal strength) and what I would assume as broadcast or standard TSIP messages do not.

Re: [time-nuts] Datum ts2100 gps error code 41: New clone ace III
The GPS Health menu choice never really did anything. It will always say Doing position fixes, error code: 1. However, the GPS Firmware and Signal Strength menus should report back proper information. Can you elaborate on it does not set the right time? Is it some random time, or is it off by some fixed general offset (like 1 hour)? Do the Tracking Lock LEDs light up with the new receiver? Hi all! Have a Datum ts2100 that had a failed gps receiver. Found a replacement as a new clone. The ts2100 with the new receiver does not set the right time, however, it does know where it is, reports the gps firmware version and gives satellite information. Prior to this, the only message that I could get regarding the gps receiver was gps engine busy. The ts2100 never illuminates the lock or tracking led's on the front panel. When checking the menu available from the front panel, in the timing section, at the gps health prompt, the ts2100 reports the error gps doing fixes error code 41 A google search reveals absolutely nothing.

Re: [time-nuts] Datum ts2100 gps error code 41: New clone ace III
Jason, The time on the front panel of the instrument, at power on, shows Jan 1, 2014. As you say, the gps health menu choice functions sometimes like you state, other times I get error 41. I do also get the firmware and satellite information. Neither the Tracking or Lock led's illuminate.

Re: [time-nuts] Datum ts2100 gps error code 41: New clone ace III
Jason, If the device (gps) reports the firmware and satellites correctly (to the ts 2100), I would assume so. No other reasonable explanation exists. Turns out that the original receiver was a svee6. Found the manual for the gps and am comparing the default messages with the ace III.
