120 Options List
with frequency below nominal (50 or 60 Hz) and decreases with frequency above nominal; in
other words, if the zero crossing occurs just after 1 PPS-GPS, the phase angle will be just
above zero, and if the zero crossing occurs just prior to 1 PPS-GPS, phase angle will be just
under 360
◦
.
• Time deviation decreases (becomes more negative) with frequency below nominal, and in-
creases (becomes more positive) with frequency above nominal.
