Hi All,
I couldn't wait for the new RTC and zero-power nvram to arrive so I took the Dremel to the 2 chips and successfully replaced the batteries myself. http://www.vk2hmc.net/blog/?p=245 However, The Austron seems to have a problem with dates after 1999. As soon as I set the date to greater than 1999 off it goes into a reboot loop and I have to switch off and remove the batteries, w a i t and reinstall the batteries. Then the time is back to 1980 and it happily boots up. Have I got a non-compliant Y2K Austron 2200? What will happen when the GPS tells it the date is now 2013? As I have no antenna to test, I thought I would ask the groups Austron 2200 owners if they have seen this behaviour?. Also, Can I tell the Austron to lock the Rubidium to an external PPS/10Mhz input rather than GPS? Just until I get an antenna sorted. -marki _______________________________________________ time-nuts mailing list -- [email protected] To unsubscribe, go to https://www.febo.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/time-nuts and follow the instructions there.
