Does this include the PPS signal on the DTR pin? I think this is part of the problem with a long serial cable and GPS. The pulse is sometimes VERY short. Again, yes you could fix this by introducing circuits at each end. And what were you sending? Typically in an IT environment you'd be using serial for the admin ports of routers and the like. Basically you run terminal emulators and it does not matter if one in 1,000 characters is corrupted. The data is not checksummed and you'd rarely notice an error. The Binary TSIP data from a Thunderbolt is checksummed and runs 24x7 so you notice every error. But really, the main problem was the PPS. -- Chris Albertson Redondo Beach, California _______________________________________________ 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.
