IRIG source
Switch IRIG source to internal IRIG time generator
On APM and APX boards “free wheeling” is
disabled with this setting
Switch IRIG source to external IRIG time generator
On APM and APX boards, “free wheeling” is
enabled with this setting. That means, if no external
IRIG signal is detected, the IRIG source is switched
automatically to internal.
Note: This parameter is not possible on all AIM boards. Please
check chapter “Board functionality overview”. If your board
does not support INTERN/EXTERN switching it uses “Free
Wheeling Mode”
