Clocking options
CDM-570L: Internal, ±0.06 ppm (SCT)
CDM-570: Internal, ±1.0 ppm (SCT)
External, locking over a ±100 ppm range (TT)
Loop timing (Rx satellite clock) - supports asymmetric operation - Rx and Tx data rates do not need to be
identical
External TX
Carrier Off
By TTL 'low' signal or external contact closure - hardware function automatically over-rides processor, or
by RTS signal on main data interface
