All, I had already set the local time zone offset from GPS to '0' so I can't address the success or not of the following commands if the 'offset' has not been set to '0'.
:DIAG:GPS:UTC 1 Worked great to set the system from GPS time to UTC time. However, nothing changed on the display until I hit: *tst? That set the ALARM for a few seconds then the receiver 'reset'. It had to re-acquire satellites which took a while but it came up with GPS LOCK and displaying UTC time. If you send: :DIAG:GPS:UTC? It will return '1' for UTC or '0' for GPS, depending on what the Z3816A is set for. -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Donald Henderickx Sent: Friday, January 24, 2014 9:57 AM To: Discussion of precise time and frequency measurement Subject: Re: [time-nuts] Z3816A Control and Cleaning On 1/23/2014 11:30 PM, Hal Murray wrote: >> Also, I seem to recall a command that can be sent by SatStat to >> change from GPS time to UTC time but I can't find it in my files.

I added a note that it did not work until local time zone was set to 0hrs 0min.
