They probably only wanted the 1 PPS..... the DDS generates the 8.3xxxx MHz and feeds a fixed divider to generate the PPS. Hence Eds's comments re these units a few posts back. I have a 5650 here that was similar.

Any idea WHY someone would design something like that?  A programable
frequency standard where the frequency does not come out of the box.

What next and audio amplifier that only drives an internal dummy load?
Light bulb with a metal envelope?
