List: This command allows users to obtain a list of bit files on the system. These files are
managed by the user. By default the system does not have any bit files. When checking to see if
there are any files use the bitcode_list command. If no files are available the system will report
this otherwise the operator will get a file listing.

The operator can also search using wildcards to obtain a more specific list of the files loaded onto
the system.

The bitcode files are managed using FTP user=bitcode, password=bitcode. The ‘bitcode’ FTP
user’s home directory is /data/bitcode, which is the only area of the file system accessible to the
‘bitcode’ FTP user. Files in this directory may be selected for download to 4391A output cards
using the bitcode_memblock command. Files with an extension of “.txt” are treated as ASCII
formatted bitcode files unless otherwise specified by the operator. All other files shall be treated
as binary formatted bit code files unless otherwise specified by the operator. The Legacy format
supports the files used with the TSC-2152B.
Clock: This command configures one or both of the bit generator clocks on a 4391A output card.
Syntax
ATS-6501> bitcode_clock --bitrate BITRATE --delay DELAY --enable <1|0> SLOT [CLOCK]
o bitrate: Bit rate to which the specified bit generator clock is to be set. BITRATE must be
an integer between 1 and 8e6. Exponential notation is valid as long as the result is an
integer in the specified range. If not specified, the bit rate shall remain unchanged. If the
specified bit rate is not an integer between 1 and 8e6 the following error message shall be
displayed: “Bit rate must be an integer or an exponential that evaluates to an integer
between 1 and 8e6”
o delay: Number of seconds by which the specified bit generator clock is to be delayed
from the system on-time point. DELAY shall be treated as a signed floating point
number and must be between -0.5 and +0.5. If not specified, the delay shall remain
unchanged. If the specified delay is not a value between -0.5 and +0.5 the following error
message shall be displayed: “Delay must be a value between -0.5 and +0.5”
